Converting from Contract to FT

I am in the same situation. Just this Friday, my boss asked me if I was interested to join them full-time. I have been working as consultant (Client - Vendor - Desi Consultancy model) for 2 years 3 months now and am on 1st year of my H1B and this is my first project. Apparently, I cannot work for the same client for more than 3 years through the vendor. I don't know the recruitment procedures yet but my boss reached out to me asking how many years relevant experience do I have as it's needed to fill up an HR form field that asked for the experience required. This is where I was not sure what to tell, waited on the email for a while to review my old resume. Boss was not my hiring manager when I got hired 2 + years before, but I couldn't just say that this is my first project as they probably have my old details. Since the question was how many years relevant experience, I had to tell by referencing my old resume that I worked in a few other projects adding up to 5 years. It will probably be a while before HR reaches out to me, however, glad to follow this thread, get inputs from you all on updates on your situation.
