aruns4 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 My visa says it expires on April 19th but my DS expires on April 3rd. My employer is willing to file H1b. If I file premium processing on April 2nd(1st being sunday, poor me :( ) and I receive receipt in email by April 3rd, can I legally stay here? I was told my J1 visa also comes with 30 days grace period where I can stay in the US (of course I cant work in the grace period). I will appreciate everyone who can respond. Thank you very much.

You can stay for the grace period of the J1, but then you would have to leave the country. Link to comment
aruns4 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Thanks JoeF for the quick response. Appreciate it. Do you think my H1b petition will get approved while I am in the grace period? Link to comment
