trigger0092000 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 Hello, I need some expert advice on my situation. I am currently on H1B with a company (reputed fortune 100) and I am trying to change to a new company (reputed fortune 100) who will sponsor my H1B - change of status and employer. My stamping from my previous comapny has expired. While I know that I dont have to go for stamping to change this job, I am thinkning of making a trip to India before I start working for the new company. My question is: Say, once my H1B (I-797) is approved from the new company and I will still be employed with the current company, can I go to India and get stamping done? Are there any issues of going for stamping before I start working in the new job? Please help.

pontevecchio Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 sURE YOU CAN GET YOUR VISA STAMPED BEFORE STARTING THE JOB. Specially if you are a direct hire I would not expect any trouble.
