Hi, H1BStamping_Tijuna2011, Can you pls tell me clearly on when is ut ASC Apt and Consulate APT? in this post you have mentioned as 17 and 18th, where as in the other post which you replied to my post you have mentioned as 18th and 19th?

Please mail me or share you contact, I will be staying from 18-20 th in Tijuana, I didn't book the hotel yet, I can surely share the accommodation with you.

Hi Shyam, I don't think what you have mentioned is a problem, you can get a visiting visa and go for stamping. I am looking at 18 and 19th for now and will confirm some time soon as I am ready with all documentation. Let me know if you want to join at that time.

Hi, I am planning to go for H1B stamping to Tijuana during 3rd week of March. Let me know if anyone planning at that time, we can plan together.

Hi Jayan, I am going to book the slot for 18 or 19th march. Let me know if u would like to join.

Thanks Dhruv for the response. I have a quick q, I have my current visa stamped till aprl,2014 and new I797 starts from may, 2014. I am going for stamping with my new approved I797 in March. Do I need to hand over both I797 to them? Will they be giving visa from the day of stamping to end of new I797? Were u in the same situation?

Hi Jayan, my email starts with sarma, which was not displayed in the previous post.

Hi reachjayan, Did you book your slot? I am planning to confirm my appointment in next week for 3rd or 4th week of march. Please share your contact info or contact me ********* dot ur at gmail.
