MT2515 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hello, My H1 B expired on Nov 24th 2017, I applied for COS from H1b to H4 on Nov 13th and got my receipt on Nov 15th. I saw USCIS is taking approx. 8 months to approve the petition. Before that my driving license has expired. Anyways if I go to India and get it stamped. Would I be considered out of status/illegal in the country since Nov 24th. I am planning to go and get it stamped on March 20th. My COS application was done before my H1b expired. Please suggest Thanks Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 The timely filed application for COS to H4 keeps you legal. Link to comment
MT2515 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Thank you. What happens if I decide to travel for stamping before they give decision for COS application. Any risk in going for stamping? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 No risk. You can certainly do that if you wish. Link to comment
