Name of the State : California
I need your advice on my situation. I worked for company A and they did filed the GC on behalf of me in 2004. As I got laid off from Company A, I decided to join in Company B in June 2007 and applied for my H1 transfer based on company A's GC application as I am on my 8th year of H1B extension. In the meantime Company A withdraw my GC application and for the same reason on July 12th my H1B transfer case got rejected. Luckily Company B was able to find a matching approved labor and they applied for my labor substituion on July 16th and two days back I got my I140 receipt notice too.
Today company B wants to apply for my H1 transfer again based on my I140 receipt notice and indicated that it might get approved based on counsular processing.
I am bit concerned about this. My question are
From your experience, is this a complicated case?
How safe I am with counsular processing.
And could you please let me if I am in a legal status?
Thanks in advance for any inputs.
