Hi All, First of all I would like to thank everyone who is helping in this forum. Please help me how can I resolve my issue. I got my H-1B stamped back in March 2020 and because of travel ban in India my company did not take any decision on my travel. But in August because of requirement in onsite and at the same time my visa is also going to expire in Oct 2020 they started my travel process real quick and sent me here on Aug 15th, 2020. Recently my H-1B extension approved for next 3 years. Now, I want to bring my wife and daughter here (I filled DS 160s and appointment is in March 2021), so my question is, am I eligible for emergency appointment with family separation reason or do I need to wait until my appointment date? I don't know how to proceed from here. Need someone's guidance please. Thanks.

Hi Ketha, Thanks for your reply, I am happy to see the people on same boat and getting out of it successfully. I am planning to go for stamping in november and that too in ottawa as it is one of the nearest location to me. Can you please suggest me how can I reach you out for further questions?

Here is my situation. I did my master's in computer science in 2012, my F1 VISA expired in Dec 2014 (got only 4 yrs of F1 VISA) my OPT expired in Mar-2015 . My H-1B did not get picked in 2014. So I applied for my second Master's in Information Technology in April-2015 in the same university (not a good university though). I am maintaining my f1 SEVIS active without going out of status at anytime. This year (2015) I applied for my H-1B and got approved. Now here comes the most difficult part - going for Visa stamping. My Question is, am I eligible for going to Canada and get my H1 stamping done and what type of consequences I may face? I know I am in a bad phase. so can somebody please suggest me in a right path?
