how much time I have to apply l1 extension when h1 is in process

[sgsb]

Hi, I need some help.

I am currently in L1 B with current employer A, I applied H1B [COS] through a consultant Employer B

My H1 B got RFE on Aug 8, Employer B is preparing for response, still not submitted. They are saying they will submit this week.

My L1 B is going to be expired next Month [nov 2013] but I have i94 till 2015

I am planning to apply for L1 B extension

My Wife is in L2 and EAD till 2015 , my consultant [employer B] applied H4 for her also, she is working

Now My question :

a) Shall I wait for some more time for my L1 B extension [Only one month left]

b) My consultant took almost 2 month for RFE response, still not submitted. Is this normal

c) Let say if my H1 got approved how much time I have to switch my company , Oct 1 already got passed. I need to search for Project once my H 1 got approved, so how much time I have

d) When my wife need to resign from her company , once I resign from Employer A or the day H1 got approved

e) Let say My H 1 got rejected , so do I need to inform employer A about this

f) Let Say my H 1 approval took more time , can I submit my L1 extension

a. You cant file L1 extension now as you have I94 validity till 2015.
b. It depends on RFE.
c. As soon as H1 is approved as COS you should work only with B and should get paid as per LCA. What do mean search for a project? On what project basis was H1 filed and approved?
d. As soon as H1 COS is approved.
e. No need.
f. As I said your extension request will be denied as you already have a valid I94 till 2015 and can work on L1 till that time , provided you don't do a COS to another status.

This is my opinion not legal advice.
