1. Without an approved i140, you have 6 years of H1B VISA. That’s it.

2. If you’ve already consumed 2, you’ve got 4 left.

3. When you finish your education, and assuming you find a job that sponsors immigrants, you’ll be reinstated and you’ll have 1 year on H1b before it has to be renewed for 3 more.

4. The benefit here is that when you’re hired, since you already have had H1b, you’re able to fully utilize your CPT (1 year) and then apply to reinstate H1b. Effectively giving you 7 years of possible employment in USA.

5. Green card situation is only going to get worse - not to disappoint you or anything - but it’s the truth. So, if you’re back on H1b (assuming you get a job which you will), don’t sit back and relax. Figure out what your options are.

Check if your MBA program is STEM. That buys extra time.

I was in a similar situation and unable to recapture the unused time. In my case, I was still on my first H1 and was able to get a second H1 for 3 years after MBA

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.
