H1B - WFH option from India during Travel Ban


Recommended Posts

Hi Folks,

I went to India on 5-Apr-2021 for vacation for 1 week and then started working for 3 weeks from India, due to sudden travel ban I'm stuck in India currently. As per my HR I'm not supposed to work outside US beyond certain time frame as our company does not have a legal entity in India. They are asking me to take forced vacation till the ban is lifted and I'm back to US. Also my H1B stamping is expiring this may 24th which puts me indefinite situation of when I can get stamped and travel back to US once ban is lifted. What are the options I have and is it true that I can not work from India beyond certain time if my company does not have legal entity in India. Any info or online documentation regarding this is highly appreciated. Please advise and thanks in advance.
