Your stay outside the US for more than 1 yr. does not matter, since you did not get a new H1. You underwent a cap exempt process viz., you are still claiming to be counted under your previous H1 petition, and hence your maximum stay period hasn't been reset.Last edited by scientist2016; 01-25-2017, 05:38 PM.

Thanks for your prompt reply
I need clarification for #2
I just calculated total days I was outside of USA
It comes to ~560 days which is 1 year and 6 months
Please elaborate your comment below
2. No as the time between your exit and application of H1 was not 1 year.

Before coming to USA I had to undergo the H1-B Cap exempt process
1) I want to know if total number of day I spent in USA while on L1B also is considered ?
2) I was outside USA between Jan 15 to Aug 16 so was wondering if my Max possible stay counter gets reset based on this ?
Thanks
