Update HR Q&A Question: Why is the company filing an H-1B consular visa petition for me? Answer: The L-1 visa max out time period is 5 years for an L-1B and 7 years for an L-1A. An L-1 visa may not be extended once it is maxed out. The H-1B visa has the advantage that it may be extended beyond the 6th year (the H-1B visa max out period is 6 years) if the first stage of a petition for a Green Card (PERM Labor Certification) is filed 365 days prior to the 6 year expiration date (in other words, by the end of the 5th year of the H-1B). In summary, an H-1B has the advantage of continuous US employment eligibility as long as a PERM Labor Certification petition is filed by the 5th year. Question: If the H-1B consular visa petition is approved, does it mean that I receive another 6 years? Answer: No. Time spent on an L-1 counts towards H-1B validity. For instance, if you have been on an L-1 for 3 years and then convert to H-1B visa status, then you have 3 years left on the H-1B. As mentioned earlier, the H-1B may be extended beyond the 6th year if a PERM Labor Certification petition is filed by the 5th year. Question: My spouse is on an L-2 visa and has an EAD, so how does approval of an H-1B consular visa affect her/him? Answer: The H-1B consular visa does not affect your spouse’s L-2 EAD until either (1) the H-1B consular visa is activated or (2) Company files a consular to in-country change of status amendment. --
