well the company that got me the h1 is vendor to many fortune 100 companies, and there are more than 200 people working directly or indirectly for that consultancy. As you said it is run by indian, but they r saying as this is the end of year, it will be bit hard to get a new project. I was wondering if I stay on bench 1 more month, will I be illegal??? Its already been one and half month.
