Ironman3 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Hi, I am on my OPT (STEM) recently got H1b approved and will start on Oct 1st, Is there any chance to go to VISA stamping before Oct 1st or I have to wait and go after oct 1st. Please advise. Thanks.
ravindarbareddy Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Yes, As I know u have to go after Oct 1st only. Thats the meaning of H1B saying FY14 Quota. Consider others sayings also. cheers

shekar11# Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 You can go for interview 30 days before your start date. So after September 1st shud be fine.
rahul412 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 Hi Ironman3, You have to wait and go after Oct 1st. Since your H1-B petition start at that time only. Thank You, MAK No,a person can attend the interview before Oct 1st. If this is not possible then how the candidates from outside the US start working from Oct 1st?
Ironman3 Posted June 13, 2013 Author Report Posted June 13, 2013 Guys Thanks for the suggestions :) appreciate it. As I have done some research, and got to know that we can go for visa stamping 3 months before the start date i.e if H1 starting on OCT 1st can go for stamping on or after JULY 1st, and that person is eligible to enter US jus before 10 days prior to the H1 start date that is some time after sep 20th. And this theory will work for the people outside the US who are going to come on H1. I didn't get any information on OPT people who are currently in US trying to get stamping.....before oct 1st. Appreciate your advices. Thanks.
rahul412 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 I didn't get any information on OPT people who are currently in US trying to get stamping.....before oct 1st. . These people are already in US and working. That's reason why they won't attend the interview before Oct 1st.
