Hi All,
Need a quick suggestion & guidance. My H1B petition got approved last year in Feb’20 but due to the Covid-19 pandemic I wasn’t able to get my Visa stamped, which finally happened this year in Sep’21. But now the problem is my Visa expiration date is 31st Dec’21.
I wanted to know the best way here amongst the below two options:
I file extension after reaching US?
I file extension from India only?
Please help me know what is the correct & best amongst the above 2 options?
(My company says that I have to do it before 45 days from expiry and same I have read online also that “USCIS recommends filing an extension within 45 days of the H-1B visa’s expiration”) Would really appreciate if someone could guide me on the same.
TIA????
