abvisaq Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 I changed location and roles and my H1B amendment for new role/location is still pending. I am planning to travel to India in Jan 2019 and want to check if it is OK to travel with H1B amendment pending. My previous H1B is valid till 2020. Another complication is that while it is an internal transfer (move in the same company), petitioners in my approved H1B and pending H1B amendment are different. For my original petition (status approved), petitioner is umbrella company but for my H1B amendment (status pending), petitioner is one of the subsidiaries of the umbrella company. I have few questions. 1. Can I get visa stamping in India based on my approved H1B petition? 2. Is there a risk at point of entry with pending H1B amendment? Link to comment
kalyan487 Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 I Travelled to India while my H1B Amendment is in pending and came back without any issues. Just carried all docs and Amendment receipt, at POE they have not asked regarding Amendment. Just checked my approved I797 . This is my experience. After couple of months later I got generic RFE for Amendment and got approved. Regarding petitioners you mentioned , I have no idea. Link to comment
abvisaq Posted January 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Thanks for the reply. Did you carry any specific document apart from mentioned on the website. Also, did you do visa stamping as well? Link to comment
