lostpacket Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 If the consulate is not handling the case i.e. petition is sent back to USCIS , then you could apply for a new visa. I would suggest contact the consulate to see if you need to withdraw previous application for visa. Link to comment

gcsgc Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Yes, u can go for a new H1B while ur previous visa application is pending admin processing. When u appear for a visa interview based on ur new H1B petition, just take a letter with u stating that u would like to withdraw the pending visa application. U do not even need to state this unless VO asks about ur pending application. In most cases, VOs are aware that u have a pending visa application with them. I have seen cases where the VO asks about the pending application and i have also seen cases (including myself) where the VO didn'e ask anything about it. Link to comment

When i emailed to chennai, for withdrawing petition, they asked me to come in person on this thursday,17th at 2.00PM. Please let me know if this is mandatory.... Link to comment
pranavi2008 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hi lakshma i think better you need to withdraw your old petition in chennai...or at the time of interview also you can give a letter to withdraw the application if they ask you..better to carry the withdrawal letter while going for interview in hyd..
