nchhabria Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 I am on H1B visa and have a 797 approval notice but my spouse's H4 visa is still pending though we have received a 797C notice that the case is still pending approval. Do you think its safe to travel to STT and return back to US without any issues? I heard there is no passport or visa required to travel to STT but while returning back they check for legal status. I am more concerned about my spouse's entry back. Link to comment
newacct Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 It should be fine as you are both staying legally in the US. Link to comment
JoeF Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 St. Thomas, like all of the US Virgin Islands, IS part of the US. So, you do not "return back to the US" when you are flying to the mainland. You are staying in the US. Flying to and from STT is the same as flying to and from LAX, JFK, KOA (Kona, Hawaii), ORD, MIA, or any other airport in the US. Take the H4 receipt notice with you. Link to comment
care_candidate Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I did it a while ago on H1b & spouse on J1 - No issue There shouldn't be issue for H4 either You will still go through immigration at both places. And obviously, cannot go to British VI, which is right beside Link to comment
