H1B First Time Stamping at Vancouver

[sdoshi]

Hi,

I have a Feb 10 date for vancouver but need to leave for india immediately on Dec 25. Can I fly to India then fly back to Vancouver on Feb 9 for Stamping, then enter US? I do have CANADA VISA and I prefer Canda for first time stamping. Please advice

I guess you can . But you will have to face a question .

1. when you went back to home country .why did you come all the way to Canada for stamping.

Hi,

I guess you could do that, since you would be entering Canada instead of US. But, at the Port of entry in Canada, you ought to be careful to answer the reason entering Canada Question.

I mean your "Purpose of Visit"

All the best!
