Dear Murthy Forum,

 

I lost my job and was not able to find a job immediately and was unemployed for a month. 

 

My new H1 petition was approved but I94 was not issued due to the gap. My attorney informed I need to travel India for getting a visa stamp. I have two questions:
 

1) Can I start working at the new company without the new I94 (My previous I94 is still valid)

2) Can I go to any other country or is it mandatory that I should go to India?

 

 

Thank you in advance.

 

 

Best Regards

1. No.

2. Always better to travel to home country.
