Hi All, Please help me.
I am on H1B visa, My current job contract will end on March 31st 2009 so definitely my H1B will also end at the same time however, my I-94 is valid till May 2009. My employer said they have already filed my H1B extension till Nov 2009 and the case is pending but they didn’t providing me a receipt number (They said they don’t have yet, ask them again at the end of March) neither have they provided me the renewed wok contract papers. So I decided to apply H4 (COS) (as my spouse is on H1B) considering the March 31st end of my current visa status.
1. If they really filed my H1B extension, will it cause problem to my I-539(COS) as both cases will be pending and incase the H1B extension got approve first that mean I will received New I-94. In this case what will happen to my pending I-539?
2. If my I-539(COS) got approved first and I will get new I-94, what will happen of pending H1B, will this also have chances to approve and if approved (definitely send new I-94) what status will apply for me. Is there any way to withdraw H1B extension?
I do not want to go out of US for stamping H4 visa. Please suggest me the possibilities as I have only one month.
Thanks in advance.
