Deepak Chopade Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 I am Indian citizen and currently live in USA. I have H1-B approved in Oct 2017. Recently I changed employer and as they filed for visa transfer I-129, USCIS asked me to get that stamped on passport. I am planning to visit Canada (Halifax / Vancouver) for H1 stamping. I want to know, Can I do that ? are there good chances of approval ? Do I have options for other countries like Singapore, Dubai ? Link to comment

A visa is an entry document, you only need a visa if you are going abroad and want to come back. Also, an I-129 is not about a visa transfer, it is an H1 petition, so it is a transfer of the H1 status. Has nothing at all to do with a visa. So, there is something you are not telling us (or you are confused, which your lawyer, you have one, do you?, can clear up.) Link to comment

As I got approval I-797B without I-94. Link to comment
