First H1B stamping (F1 to H1) in Vancouver Canada

[Sri9532]

Hi Friends,

Recently my H1 got approved, and my previous visa status is F1. Am I eligible now to get my first  H1 visa stamping in Canada? Below are my details:

Nationality: Indian

Current status: H1B

Previous status: F1

Has anyone previously attended H1 stamping in Canada? Looking forward to your suggestions.

Thanks

Yes. Canada allows first time H1B staping. Back 2012 I did my first F1 to H1B in Vancouver Canada.

Travel to Canada is very restricted due to Covid-19. You may not be able to travel to Canada only for US visa stamping. Please check USCIS and Canada border websites. Also, there is President Trump proclamation on first time H1B visas. Please check with your attorney before booking any travel to Canada.

Hi, Could you post if you were able to get your h1b stamping in Canada - it will help me since I am in the same situation.
