Hi,
I have an approved H1-B work petition (filed in 2012) that got expired in September, 2013. Unfortunately, I could not get it stamped at the US consulate and have never traveled to the USA. I have a few questions around this on which I need some information.
1) Will I be eligible for an Out of Cap visa filing ?
2) I have the Receipt number of the approved work petition. But I do not have the i-797 with me and I don’t think my current employer will let me have it. If some other employer is willing to get the H1-B filed H1-B for me, will the receipt number (from the approved petition from my current employer) suffice for an Out of Cap exemption ?
Appreciate all your help and assistance.
Thanks and Regards,
Raamkri
