charan843 Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 I attended H1B visa interview in chennai on october 29th, 2019. VO given me 221g blue slip and he asked client letter and i797. He said the processing may be quick or it may take longer, nothing in his hands. My i797 is going to expire in 20 days. What is the alternative solution for me if my visa gets approved after i797 expires? Can i just submit newly approved i797 to the consulate or should i again go to the interview with new i797? Please help!!! Quote Link to comment

charan843 Posted January 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 My i797 got expired on Dec 31st, 2019. Consulate asked me to submit new i797. My employer applied for extension. I got my new i797 approved for 3 years and i submitted it to US consulate two days back. Later they said my case is still under review. They said they will let me know once it is done. It's taking soo long. Quote Link to comment
