Q.

PERM > H1or H1 Transfer + PERM or COS F1

Hi,

Following is my Scenario:

- h1 transferred (current): 4 months ago
(promised for PERM and GC. Due to un avoidable reason, company is about to be sold in 1 yr)
- H1 Exp: Oct 2012 - 6yrs

Found a new employer who is ready for my H1 transfer also positive about PERM + GC. However, this is a new small company (LLC), about 15 months in business, with good turnover

I want to take most favourable decision this time with options in mind:

File PERM from new CO. (future employment) and initiate H1 transfer once PERM is approved
Q1: Is it possible?

File H1 Transfer and PERM concurrent
Q2: Is it possible?

Forget H1 transfer this time and COS to F1
Q3: Will I be granted F1, if I have an approved I130 (waiting for PD to be current)

Please help,
Rub E
