  • What does Visa Issued in India mean? Does it mean Visa Stamped in India?

    The visa stamped on my passport expired on September 2016, but I have an approved i129 for the H1B visa renewal petition that was filed in 2016, hence I was working in the US with a valid Visa. I got hired to a new company this year (2018), and I have a new approved i129 with that company as a petitioner valid from June of 2018 to June of 2021. I have to visit India this year (Dec 2018). I am in the process of applying for Visa Stamping. When I see the question - Was your previous visa issued in India after 2008? What should I answer? Should I answer No because the previous visa (the valid visa that was not stamped) is not stamped yet in India? Or should I answer yes, because the previous visa that was issued in India (that expired in 2016) was issued after 2008?

    Visa is something that is stamped on passport by US Consulate in India. I-129 is NOT a Visa.
