Default H1 b extention and Transfer

HI ,
MY H1 b is expiring on 30 Sep ,2009 .

My current client informed me that they are going to hire me as a fulltime , but it will take 2-3 months for them to hire me .

Should I ask my current employer to file H1 extention right now ?

Or I should wait for H1 trnsfer as a fulltime employee ?

Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Arrow Go for extension

Better ask your current employer for extension in August (as your H1 is expiring in Sept last week). But we never know about full time jobs and offer can go either way in last minute. So, keep in loop the current employer. If you won't get full time offer by July end, start process with current employer.

As your H1 B expires on Sep 2009 , it is good to apply for your H1 B extension with the current employer as you have a valid client. Request your client to provide a supporting document/letter for your extension . If the client needs to hire you, you could transfer after the extension. Use the client reference to get your extension as soon as possible.

If there is a chance that client will offer fulltime job in next 2 months, consider waiting till aug for h1 extesnion, otherwise file for extension now. CIS may need end client letter for H1 extension.
