  • Will I get 6 years on h1B?

    Hi

    I am on L1B and have utilized 3 years out of 5. Now I am going to home country for a year and will be back on H1B. Will I get 3+3=6 years on it or 2 years remaining out of L1B?

    You will get 6 years if you stay out of U.S for 1 complete year. The company should apply your petition as a new H1B subjected to CAP.

      Thanks shervin143.

      I already have copy of I797 (no I-94), which is cap counted in the 2009. If I get company who brings me to US. Is company still need to apply for new H1b petition?

        You will get only the remaining period if you use that CAP.

          Hi Shervin143,

          Even after spending 1 complete year out side US, I wont get 6 years?
          I have been told that, if I spend one complete year outside US I will get 6 years on H1B instead of remaining 2 years of L1B.

          Please clear my doubt.
