Hi,
I had taken advise from this forum earlier on my case. However, I don't find my earlier thread.
In brief, my employer filed a cap exempt H1 on which I had already spent around 56 months in US. I was told by my the immigration team of my org as well this forum that I am eligible for only 16 months (max 6 yrs - 56 months).
However USCIS has now approved my cap exempt app for 3 years now.
I would like to understand what I should do. Can I stay in US legally beyond 16 months, if I get I94 too for 3 years.
Will this create any issue, if my company starts a GC process for me and I happen to be in US on this H1 after 16 months.
Please advice.
