[sugarcandy]

Hello All,

My husband's h1b & my h4 got expired on Sep 2015.we applied for extension & got denied.went out of the country..applied again & now approved..
My question is Can I go for dropbox option?? Same employer,Same country where I got stamped. Less than 12 months my visa expired..
My first stamping is without i797 & took appointment & got stamped. Second stamping is dropbox. Now only my husband will have i797 with that can I Go for dropbox??
Is my I797 mandatory for dropbox?

I-797 is mandatory only for the H1B visa application. For H4, H4 I-797 is not required, however a copy of the H1B holder's I-797 is required. Answer all the questions appropriately and the system will deceide whether you are eligible for visa IWP or not. Check the below link.
