Hi
I was working on on L2 Visa with EAD and it expired on Jan 1.My husband's company already applied for L1 and L2 extension but decision is still pending. I also applied for the renewal of my EAD that is also under process .
My employer applied H1B for me and now I got my new H1B for 3 years and my company is planning to apply green card for me also.
So my question is what I need to do with my current L2 visa extension? I heard from some people that as per "Last action rule" if my L2 visa approved later I will be in L2 status agin. But I prefer H1B status for me.
I have discussed this with two immigration attorneys both have different opinions.
One person told me that I can withdraw my L2 visa extension right now. So that I can remain in H1B status.
second person is saying I need not worry about this. If I am getting L2 Visa extension, then I can decide which one to choose. So no need of withdrawing L2 right now.
So I am really confused. Please advise me which option I need to choose.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
