How to Extend H1-B beyond 6 years if PERM is not filed ?
Send me email updates:
This is difficult immigration question what if H-1B holder is in his/her sixth year (last year) and a PERM case is not filed on his/her behalf? Can Immigrant live in US for another few years?
Yes you can says this news. Basically get away from H1-B status and remain in other status say H1-B or a student visa like F1. File PERM and then wait for a year and get back to H1-B visa status where an eligibility extension is possible.
But make sure the changing status to other visa types is not a time taking process otherwise one would go out of status after six years.
The site lists all other possible visa categories that a person can use to move away from H1-B :
Have you been in this situation and Are ther any other alternatives than moving away from H1-B status? Please share with us

The site lists all other possible visa categories that a person can use to move away from H1-B :
B-1 or B-2 (temporary visitors), E-1 and E-2 (owners or workers with trade or investor visas), F-1 (students), H-3 (trainees), J-1 (international exchange visitors), L visas and more. Of course, not all of these categories will be available to all aliens, and even when available, they may not necessarily authorize employment.
