L1A vs H1 question
Hello expert panel.
I am on L1A visa with Company A and my wife is on L2+EAD. Both expire 21 Oct 2014.
I got my H1B approved on 2 May 2014 with another company B and COS will take effect on 1 Oct 2014.
My wife's H1B with company C is in RFE right now. She may get approval/rejection by 1 July 2014 (Premium processing)
In the meantime, my L1 employer (company A) is asking me to file for extensions for my L1A and wife's L2.
If L1A and L2 get extended for another 2 years, will my H1B get cancelled? Or can i make a choice around September which employer to work for without exiting USA (L1 vs H1)?
Also If my wife's H1B gets approved by July, and then her L2 gets approved around October, can she choose H1 over L2 without exiting USA?
The reason for going ahead with L1/L2 extensions is they are showing some hope to file GC in EB1 category in next one or two months but nothing certain.
Thank you.
