There are only two situations in which an H-1B status holder can extend his/ her visa status beyond the 6-year limit: If the H-1B holder has filed either a Labor Certification application or an I-140 petition 365 days before reaching the six-year limitation AND the LC or I-140 has not been denied, the H-1B visa holder may extend his or her status on an annual basis beyond the six-year limitation. There is no upper limit on total years in H-1B extension under such a circumstance as long as the immigration process is still ongoing. For example, Mr. Park’s employer filed PERM for him one month before Mr. Park reaches the five year anniversary of his H-1B. The PERM has been delayed due to auditing. Next month, Mr. Park is going to reach the final year of the six-year limitation of his H-1B status. Mr. Park’s employer may file an extension for Mr. Park now so that he can remain in H-1B status beyond six years. Assuming Mr. Park’s PERM is approved before the six year anniversary of his H-1B, Mr. Park has filed an I-140 and I-485, and both cases are pending, Mr . Park will be able to extend his H-1B based on his pending I-140 and I-485 cases. If an H-1B visa holder has an approved I-140 petition AND the immigrant visa number is not available to him/her due to visa number retrogression (not eligible to file I-485 due to visa number limits), the H-1B visa holder may extend his/her statusin three-year intervals beyond the 6-year limit. There is no 365-day requirement for this circumstance. For example, Mr. Wang is an engineer from China and he retains our firm for a PERM case when he only has about ten months left for his total six-year H- 1B period. Our firm successfully receives PERM approval within six months and files the I-140 petition immediately. Due to the visa retrogression for Chinese nationals, Mr. Wang is unable to file his I-485 together with his I -140. Fortunately, his I-140 gets approved within three months, exactly one month before he reaches his six-year H-1B limitation. We proceed to file an H-1B extension request for Mr. Wang based on the approved I-140, and receive H-1B approval for three years. For another example, Dr. Rajeev from India files his NIW I-140 petition through our firm about six months before he reaches his six-year H-1B limitation. His I-140 is approved in three months. Dr. Rajeev is not eligible to file I-485 due to immigration visa number retrogression for Indian nationals. Dr. Rajeev is eligible to extend his H-1B for three years based on his approved I-140. - See more at: http://www.hooyou.com/h-1b/h1b_exten_6years.html#sthash.JmQf4fuP.dpuf

原来是这样。我原先以为 AC21 106(b) 只适用于 I-140 批准之前的情况。 实际上这个条款在 Pubic Law 107-273 中被修改了,只要 I-485 批准(或拒绝)以前 都可以延长H-1B,每次一年。 (b) Extension of H-1B Worker Status.--Section 106(b) of American Competitiveness in the Twenty-first Century Act of 2000 (8 U.S.C. 1184 note) is amended to read as follows: ``(b) Extension of H-1B Worker Status.--The Attorney General shall extend the stay of an alien who qualifies for an exemption under subsection (a) in one-year increments until such time as a final decision is made-- ``(1) to deny the application described in subsection (a)(1), or, in a case in which such application is granted, to deny a petition described in subsection (a)(2) filed on behalf of the alien pursuant to such grant; ``(2) to deny the petition described in subsection (a)(2); or ``(3) to grant or deny the alien's application for an immigrant visa or for adjustment of status to that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence.''.
