I am current holding an H1B (not expiring) and changing to another employer. The H1B term is also to be extented beyond the current H1B term.
Which one to select for 2 (a or e?) and 5 (b or c or d?) in I-129? Thank you.
2. Basic Classification (Check one):
a. New employment (including new employer filing H-1B extension).
b. Continuation of previously approved employment without change with the same employer.
c. Change in previously approved employment.
d. New concurrent employment.
e. Change of employer.
f. Amended petition.
5. Requested Action. (Check one):
a. Notify the office in Part 4 so the person(s) can obtain a visa or be admitted.(NOTE: a petition is not required for an E-1, E-2 or R visa).
b. Change the person(s)' status and extend their stay since the person(s) are allnow in the U.S. in another status (see instructions for limitations). This isavailable only where you check "New Employment" in Item 2, above.
c. Extend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.
d. Amend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.
e. Extend the status of a nonimmigrant classification based on a Free TradeAgreement. (See Free Trade Supplement for TN and H1B1 to Form I-129).
