This USCIS fiasco seems to have more twists than Anna Nicole Smith case.
Here is new father of the fiasco:

07/12/2007: Truth to Rumor of Resrictionist Senators Having Influenced USCIS Decision of July 2007 EB New Filing
There is an unconfirmed source of information that a couple of restrictionist U.S. Senators influenced the USCIS decision to reject July applications for their alleged fear that since July 2007 Visa Bulletin would open a flood gate of hundreds of thousands of 485 applications, the public might take it as the government giving out a sort of "amnesty" to these floods of people. We hope that there is no truth to such rumor. However, if it is true, it is indeed shocking that individual legislators could interfere with the government process on "personal" basis and without the formal legislative process of public notice and participation. We urge the U.S. Senate to get to the bottom of this rumor and take appropriate action for correction under the Senate rules.

Hi- My stamping on my passport expired on Sep'2008 (over 19 months now). But, my I-797 is valid till Aug'2012. I plan to get my visa re-stamping done when I go to India in May'10.
1. Will there be any issues?
2. What am I supposed to say for this question in the visa application website?
"Are you applying for the same class of visa which is currently valid or has expired within the past 12 months?*" (YES/NO)
The VFS website says the following:
"The following applicants do NOT qualify for appointments in the visa renewal category:
Applicants who have a U.S. visa that expired more than 12 months ago.
"
Thanks.
1. Any Issues?
As for as the standard procedures concerned, you will have no issues. There are chances for 221g, definitely not because of you have let the visa stamp expired, but if they need to check about your company.
2. You should choose "NO". You have crossed the timeline for a visa renewal queue and it is considered as a new h1 stamp. Keep in mind that this is just a queue, who gets appointments before you + can stand in front of you. As soon as you reach the counter, the procedures of how your request is validated by the visa officer is same as every other H1.

You should copy paste the post instead of link and forcing people to go to a website. I suggest you edit your post. Let people discuss here than on some other site.

I forgot to mention this is for new H1B filing, does it matter in that case?

hello experts..
My husband and I are working on H1B visa.My husband has filed for Green card..
Now my question is at what stage in my husdband's Green card process, will I be eligible for the visa extension
if 6 years on H1B are over??
If I also file for the green card, I get labor cleared and just in case I lose the job.Then what options I have
for visa extension?If I join another company do I have to have again labor cleared to get additional visa extension
at the completion of 6 year?what happens to priority date,can I use earlier GC filing priority date?
Many thanks..

Disclaimer: I'm not an immigration attroney, so consult one for your situations as laws and filing procedures are changing constantly.
most companies do the same (stop paying for H4) after initial yrs of working with them. i think they have to pay for H1 but i dont think for H4. it is easier to file the extension for H4 visa along with H1, i think it will be like 3-4 pages. i think it is somewhere around 200 for H4 (but fees changes often. check USCIS website).
send the I-539 filled and signed application to the company (with payment/reqd documents) and ask them to file both at the same time so that H4 will be approved when H1 is approved. goodluck:)
My company has just changed the rules. From now they are unwilling to pay the costs incurred in the visa extensions for the spouse.
Is this legal? Does anyone have any links etc that I can pass on to HR if this is illegal. Thanks.

Here is my opinion:
I understand that your wife has now two I 94s: One when she entered on H4 (we will call it OLD) and one when she returned from Mexico with F1 visa stamp (we will call it NEW). And both are attached to her passport.
First of all, I dont think this is a major deal. You can do one of the two things:
1. First option is to go to near by international airport and meet CBP officer. Explain him the situation (show him the copy of air ticket to mexico and appointment letter with the consulate); chances are, he will take care of the old I 94 (but make sure to keep a copy for yourself for future reference). And you can forget about the whole thing (just keep copies of old I 94, air ticket, appt letter for future reference if any question arises at any time).
2. Second option is to nothing about this and just keep the old I94, a copy of it, copies of air ticket and appoinntment letter for your file and close the file until and unless you are asked about it. Chances are, they would have automatically changed the information in their system and you may never be asked about this old I 94. If they do, you can tell them the truth what happened. I dont think it is a major deal.
I would personally go with option 1 if the nearby international airport is not too far.
In either case, make sure of one thing: Whenever your wife leaves, she must surrender the new I 94 and not the old one. Best way is, take the old I 94 out of the passport so no confusion arises.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply.
1. I got my H1B extended while I am here in US. After going back to India, are there any issues in getting the visa revalidated, since an immigration petition has been filed on my behalf?
2. Is H1-B extension based on I-140 possible when not in US?
