ChandanK Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Hi , I have changed the company and my H1B VISA transfer get approved. I received the I-797 original copy along with extended I-94. I (my attorney) filed H4 VISA extension for my wife, and we revived the Courtesy Copy (not the official Notice) from USCIS with notice Type as – “Approval Notice” But so far we have not received the original copy of her I-797. And all this processed in January 2019. My attorney is saying that my wife can go to VISA stamping in Indian with the Courtesy Copy received from USCIS. I just want to know that is the Courtesy Copy sufficient or do I really need original I-797? Thanks, Chandan Quote Link to comment

That should be enough. Quote Link to comment
