I have an approved EAD/AP with my current employer. I also have an H-1B approved until 2024 with the same employer. I have plans to visit India, my home country, in the near future. I am planning to utilize AP to come back to the U.S. and would like to work on the H-1B with the same employer. Is that possible? Also if I do not receive my green card until 2024, can I extend my H-1B with the same employer.
It is great if you have the time and you can actually get the H-1B visa. If that is not possible what you can do is return on the advance parole. If you are coming to take up the same job which you had when you left and that job was an H-1B on a continuing H-1B, the Government will still consider you to be on H-1B. So returning on advance parole to take up the same job which you left on H-1B is considered to be a continuation of that H-1B. You can do H-1B extensions, transfers, etc., once you are in the U.S. More...
