1. I was in US from 2010 September to 2014 April on my L1A (this includes the 8 months RFE period)
2. I was outside US for 7 months during the above said period (from 2011 Oct till 2012 April)
3. During my L1A extension time my company applied my H1b as well (i.e. is in April 2014)
4. My L1A extension got denied in March 2014 and I returned to India in mid of April 2014
5. My H1b petition got approved for one year starting from Oct 2014
6. I planning to travel back to US after April 2015 that means after 365 days
My Questions are:
1. Since I am re-entering US after one year, is my H1 clock reset and will I be allowed to get fresh 6 years?
2. Since my H1b petition was approved only for one year, will I be getting I-94 till Sep 2015 or for three years?
3. I have a requirement to travel on business for about 6 weeks (before completing 365 days...), so, having valid H1b visa can I travel on B1 Visa (i have valid B1 visa as well)? will it impact my 365 days clock reset?
Appreciate your help and advice.
Thanks!
