h1b_candada Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I'm from India, completed bachelors in India. I completed masters from US university, while I'm on OPT, I got H1B. I have never been outside the United States in last 2 years after my H1B approved. Now I'm planning to visit my friends in Halifax. I have already taken Canada visitor visa. I'm looking to book an appointment with US consulate in Halifax. Since this is my first H1B stamping(earlier I had f1 stamping), will Halifax Consulate accept first timers to book appointments for H1B stamping? Link to comment

h1b_candada Posted May 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Got this message from consulate when I contacted them: Please note, that as we are a small post with only one consular officer, we only process cases for employment based visas for those applicants that are residents of our Consular district (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland or the French Islands of St. Pierre et Miquelon). You should therefore contact one of our larger posts in Canada such as Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver for an appointment. ------------------ Halifax DON"T accept any appointments for h1b stamping either the first time or extensions-------------------------------------------------- Link to comment
