  • H1 Extension - How to find out if prior petition can be extended

    I used to work in the US under H1 visa. My last H1 extension expired in Oct 2013. After that, I quit my job and moved to H4 status. Right now, I have started looking for a job in the US. I still have about 3 years left on my 6 year H1 period, so as far as I was able to verify with consultants, I can just apply out-of-cap extension on the old petition once I get an employment.
    A potential employer has asked me to verify for sure that this is possible, and that my previous employer has not actually cancelled my work petition. Is there a way to check this out before applying for a new extension/h1 transfer?

    Thanks!

      That my work petition was not cancelled by my previous employer when I quit.

        It does not matter even if they have revoked your petition. If you have a copy of your approved petition, you can submit to your new employer and they can apply for cap-exempt petition based on the already approved petition.

        This is my opinion.
