Incorrect H1b Expire Date
I got my H1B Visa stamped on 20th October 2022 in New Delhi VAC (Dropbox). My H1B Visa was issued on October 26th 2022.

The expiration date printed on the H1B issued Visa is 2nd April 2023 but the Petition Expiration Date (PED) as mentioned on I-797 is August 5th 2025.

Has anyone else faced similar issue in the past and if so how did they go about resolving it. Thanks in advance.

COS from L1 to H1B - After October 1st
I am currently on L1B with Company A.
Company B has sponsored the H1B and filed the petition with COS.

I am still waiting for my H1B petition approval.

As October 1 has past, can I still give 2 weeks of notice period to my current employer A and join Company B after 2 weeks ?
Or
I have to leave company A immediately when H1B COS is approved ?

H1bPetition
Hello,

I am going to file a H1B petition this month but my passport expiration date is March 2023. I have a question regarding my petition.
is approving H1B, will they consider passport expiration date? normally, i797 would approve based on the project duration which mentioned on the LCA. but apart from that will they consider passport expiration date also? I also applied for a passport renewal and will get it in next month. Do I need to wait till I get new passport or going to file the H1B petition this month?

Please help me.

Thank you.

Appointment
Hi All,

H-1b visa holder (Primary Applicant) is eligible for an in-person interview and only H-4 visa holder (Dependent Applicant) is eligible for drop box.

Can a dependent visa holder (H-4 Visa Holder) give up her drop box and go with H-1b visa holder (Primary Applicant) for an in-person interview or should we schedule individual appointment as per eligibility?

Thank you!

While waiting for H1B approval in this lottery process, H4 EAD can be applied for the same applicant ?
Team,

I need some direction, I spouse hold h4 EAD for 2+ years and never able to work due to medical issues, so when my spouse is ready this year earlier, H4 EAD was expired so we applied H1B using consultancy and its been picked. Now I see the status is still in reviewing state, and there is no ETA for the approval as we know about their own process times.

My actual ask here is, Is it good to extend the H4 EAD which expired in this condition while H1b Lotter in hand but not yet approved ?

Kindly pour some knowledge on this, that would be helpful for us to take some decision.

Thanks,
Kumar,
