My question is "can we travell to kenya or any other country once we get H1B"? Will we get any issues in port of entry if we visit any other country? Please clarify me...
pramod_jna Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 When you say "I just got my H1b Approved" .. what does it mean? Can I assume you got your VISA stamped? If not ..make sure you put 'Kenya' as the one of the country you visited in the last 5 yrs on your DS 160 form. Either way ..you are fine .. travelling to any other country has nothing to do with your H1B approval ..
JoeF Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 If you use the H1, you have to start working for the H1 employer. You can not use the H1 as a visitor visa.
pontevecchio Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 H1B is not bonded labor or slavery. You can visit any country you want before or after.
