I was selected in 2008 financial year H1b lottery and got an approval for my H1B petition. I attended the visa interview in June 2008 and obtained visa valid till August 2010. Since i have not travelled to US because of recission my employer has revoked the petition in August 2009. Later it was communicated to me.
Today i made a call to Chennai US consulate and checked for the validity of the visa if i get new I-797 through new employer.
They said since i haven't made first entry so far with my old employer, even if i get an approved petition & has a valid visa i mush attend for visa interview again with the new I-797 petition..
Could you please guide me on this.......
