My H1B visa that was with another company expired in May and I got a new I-797 from Google, I can legally stay in the US until 2022. If I go back to India for the holidays and try to get H1 visa using the Dropbox would I be able to get my H1? Is someone in a similar boat? I may be exempt from Trump’s June’s Executive order because I was physically present in the US in June. #workvisa #h1b
You’ll be eligible for Dropbox as long as visa class (H1, you’re good here) and consulate (get appointment in the same consulate that issued your previous H1 visa) is the same. Employer change doesn’t matter. Whether this results in visa stamping depends on your application- you could be put on administrative processing or you could be asked to come in for an in person appointment all of which can cause delay. These are highly unlikely though given its google.
Do you know someone who got the visa?
I did, but it was in 2019.
