Deloitte Fish, D just filed my H1B renewal, regular filing, Vermont Service Center says it will take 9-12 months (approx) to process the application, which is more than 240 days. Anyone in same boat?

I was in a similar situation. Got RFE almost at the end of 240 days grace period, so I had to go on unpaid leave (after grace period end date) until my petition was approved as you are not allowed to work though you can legally stay within US. Also depending on the state you are in, DL expires on grace period end date. So you are not getting paid and you end up spending money on cabs after the 240 days period.

I would suggest changing to premium at least a month before your grace period end date, if that's an option.

Seeking immigration / travel advise. I know we are not lawyers but any experiences / stories would be helpful.

Can I enter the US when I have H1B change of employer petition approved but employed with my current company and serving notice period? Which company’s I-797 form do I show immigration? Do I tell them about switching jobs, etc.?

My new company lawyers are not providing clear guidance on this and suggesting against travel due to COVID in general. Thank you.
