Hello everyone,
To brief about me - I started working on my OPT since Feb-2008 and then later my H1B visa which got approved on Oct 1st, 2010.
Client whom I am working for past 3 years have office location in UK and I need to make business visit after which I have to go for H1B stamping (first time H1B stamping after my F1).
Am I eligible to go for first time H1B stamping in UK? I know many colleagues of mine went for H1B extensions in UK but none of them are for status change or I haven't come across (even tried to search forums) anyone who went for first time H1B stamping in London.
I know many of my friends got their first time H1B stamping in Canada but not sure if its same in London.
In Mexico website they clearly mentioned that Third Country Nationals* residing in the United States may apply to renew a visa in any category except B1/B2 or H2.

So Mexico is not an option as per above mentioned details in US embassy website.
But there is no such section in US embassy website UK. So can I take first time H1B appointment in US Embassy located in UK? Do they take 3rd country nationals residing in US for new H1?
Please suggest me..Thanks !!
