Hi,
I am currently on H4 visa(Expiring in Jan 2015) in US and planning to apply for H1 visa this year. Since I may be traveling to India in the month of April/May, I wanted to know -
1) Is it safe to travel after applying H1? And,
2) Can I enter US if petition is picked up?
I haven't gotten any consistent reads on any forums. Some say it is safe and that I can apply COS after I come back to US. While others say I have to get visa stamped by leaving the country to work here.
Anyone been on this boat before? Appreciate any info.
Thanks!
