H1B visa stamping

Recommended Posts

Hello friends,

Need an urgent guidance.

Currently I have an approved I-797 from my previous client ,which will expire on July-2018.

2 months back,I joined new client at different location with same employer. As per my lawyer, I have to apply new H1B petition soon again since I changed client. I am going to file new petition on 1st week of June.

My question : Can I go for VISA stamping with my old approved I-797 ?

                or do I have to wait till my new petition to be approved ?

If anybody has faced similar situation,Please guide me. Appreciate your help.

 

Regards

Always better to go with latest amended petition.

Thank you Gopala.

 

Since, there is no premium processing. I believe H1B extension will take time. 

Can I take my new receipt number as a proof of new amendment processing and go for stamping with old approved I-797 and old  LCA with all the necessary documents including  client letter from my current client ?

Will there be any issue ?

 

Thanks in advance.
