Hi ,
I have come to US in Aug 2008 on L1B for company A and get the H1 approval from Company B in Jan 2010. (It was approved till Sep 2011). I haven’t move to H1 due to some personal reason and gone back to India in April 2010 (Same time my L1 B was expired) . I came to US in Jan 2011 with fresh L1 B with company A . As my H1 B got approved in 2010 I can apply for H1 B transfer from L1 b anytime of the year - as per my discussion with different employer. Is it correct ?? My Second question is if I transfer to H1 suppose in Dec 2012 till what time I can be in US on H1. I have heard that my L1B tenure in US will also count when I will move to H1.
Thanks for your help.
