Consular petition query
Hello,
I want to know about H1B consular petition and is there any catch in that.
So currently I’m in L1B and residing in US which is expiring in sep 2022, my employer would be applying for H1B next year and I was wondering if I can opt for consular petition so that I can make international travels. I have couple of questions regarding this:
1. If my H1B is picked/approved and if I travel out, do I really need to stamp immediately? I have L1 valid till sep 2022, I can stamp H1B sometime later? Am I allowed to return to US in L1 with an approved H1 (unstamped)?
2. Is there any catch or disadvantage when compared to change of status petition?
Thanks,
Vignesh
