pavanp Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Hello all, I applied to H1b last year under consular processing and got it approved. I am currently working with my employer on F1 OPT status. I came to India to change my status to H1b and went for a Visa interview. I received a 221g. I have to travel asap because of my employer and job situation. I still have a 2-month validity on my F1 visa. Can I travel to US on my F1 while my H1 is under administrative processing (221g)? Advice/Suggestions are most welcome Link to comment
