Hi,
I applied under regular quota and got through the lottery. Few days ago my petition/case status changed and employer received an email with petition approval and validity beginning Oct 1st 2014 and for only 6 months, till Apr 2015. We are not sure what to make out of it. May I request your inputs on the below questions that I have?
1. Will there be a problem if I appear for stamping with 6 months approved petition?
2. If I get stamped and travel to US, will I have any problem extending the stay when extension petition is filed?
3. Is there a certain degree of risk if I were to travel to US with just six months of validity of petition and Visa while clearing the port of entry?
4. My employer is in touch with attorney and they are preparing to file a review petition with USCIS. Will that be of any help and/or delay the entire process assuming USCIS takes long time to review my petition and by the time I appear for stamping and get it, it may be only few months left on hand?
I am totally clueless as to how to handle this situation and would request for your inputs.
Thanks in advance.
