SRK123444 Posted July 2, 2020 Report Posted July 2, 2020 Hi, I am in Canada and working on Canada Payroll. I have valid H1B extension and my interview was cancelled due to Covid-19. I have 2 reasons travel to US, first is job and another medical treatment. I already had 2 surgeries in US and need regular treatment over there because my medical issue is critical. I have a note from doctor, it mentioned I need to be there for treatment. My extension was approved in Feb only but now I cant wait for medical treatment. Will they consider emergency appointment on H1b due to medical condition? Thanks Quote
JoeF Posted July 2, 2020 Report Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) Canada has a very good healthcare system. I am sure you can get treatment there. I don't think you can get a visa. Edited July 2, 2020 by JoeF Quote
User099 Posted July 2, 2020 Report Posted July 2, 2020 Why you need H1 to come for medical treatment, you can apply for B2. Quote
