Hi everyone,
Thanks to all the members of Immihelp. Great forums and quick response/help so far.
I have two questions here. If some one can answer these that would be great.
Q1) I'm on H1B visa valid till Sep 30th 2012. Last time when I went to US embassy for stamping in Feb 2008, they gave me 221g slip for administrative processing, and processed the visa within 2 weeks and gave the stamp valid until Feb 2010. Now i'm taking one month vacation and going to India, and since the stamp has been expired on my passport, i'm going to the visa interview. My question is since the administrative processing has already been done, are there any chances of getting 221g form again this time?
Q2) My next question. My 5th year of H1B visa expires on Sep 30th 2012 (H1B started from Oct 1st 2007). Is the H1B period a total of 7 years? If my employer is willing to apply for renewal early 2012, what are the chances of getting H1B renewed for 2 more years?
I appreciate your time, any help would be great.
Thank you,
Priya
