Hello,
I am a Canadian citizen and have a new job in the United States which I have already started 2 weeks ago. My existing H1B is being transferred to the new employer. I have asked for the accelerated process and I should receive it no later than two weeks from now. (I hope)
The problem is that I must travel to Canada for my new employer this week.
Will I have a problem coming back into the U.S. without the actual new Visa?
Can I still use my old visa from the old employer? What do I say at the border?
Should I carry with me the actual receipt of the visa petition? A paycheck from my new employer? A paycheck from my old employer? The new job offer?
I would hate to be stuck at the border during this interim period while I await the new visa, but the meetings in Canada are important to my new employer.
Thanks in advance!
Helen
