H1b Visa validity for India Travel/Atlanta POE

[chandu]

Hi, I am planning to go to India in second week of april 2017. I have current stamping valid until feb 2018. I will come back on second week of may 2017. My POE will be Atlanta. I have all necessary documents and am a full time employee. Please suggest is it safe to travel and any recent experiences at Atlanta POE. Also how much time need to be there on Visa at the time of Entering back into USA?

You should be fine. I came on H1 twice with few months left on H1 in 2011 and 2015 but POE was LAX.

In 2015, I had 7 weeks left on H1 when I got stamping in Mumbai, no question asked regarding short time left on H1 but at POE officer was insisting about further extension filed or not. I said I didn't but that would be first thing I would do immediately.

But please remember I had 7 weeks left, you will have good period .

Thanks Thanishkaa. However I am little worried now, because of the situation currently being very volatile.
