My original petition is valid for only 1 year and I am currently in India...meanwhile my project has changed and I will be going in a different location in US...therefore my petition needs to be amended...my question is does the amendment overrides the duration of original petition? I mean if in the client letter we justify my job is for 3 years can USCIS approve the amendment for 3 years or it will be only up to 1 year as per my current original petition?

If amendment can change my petition approval for 3 years then I will go for stamping only after amendment...however if amendment can not change job duration then I will go for stamping now with my current petition...

Kindly let me know the rule about petition amendment so that I can take a decision about stamping.
