Pinkycutie Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Hello , H-1b transfer packet was sent on 60th day of grace period and it will be delivered next day. Wanted to check if we should exit the country and do re-entry? And also do we need to go for visa stamping again? FYI - Stamped Visa is until Jun 2024 Quote Link to comment
Zodiac System Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Was this visa packet mailed by the employer's attorney on the 60th day of grace period? If yes then no worries. Otherwise get in touch with an immigration attorney. Good Luck. Quote Link to comment
Attorney_23 Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 An H1B petition is generally not considered filed until it is actually received by the USCIS. If an H1B change of employer is filed after the grace period, the USCIS will typically deny the status request (i.e., approve the petition, but without an I-94). However, the USCIS has the discretion to forgive a late filing. Quote Link to comment
