Anyone had stamping with Amendment in progress?
Hello folks,
Did anyone here had to travel during H1b Location amendment in progress and went for stamping as well?

Or anyone went to Canada/ Mexico / India and appeared for stamping? It would be great if we could share experience, would be helpful!

I have amendment pending since 190 days now, no update, but I wanted to travel by April end. Looking for your comments or someone heard any similar experiences?

Suggestions, if wait is only option here?

Thanks!

no response after 221g for 60 days
I attended visa interview on 20 December, 2017 at Delhi Consulate. The interview was normal.

At the end, the interviewer issued me a 221G asking for documents. I told the VO that I have all the documents with me. She said that they need all the documents in pdf form.

My employer submitted all the documents on January 17. It's been 60 days since the document submission and I haven't received any response. My status on ceac website says - Administrative processing with last update date as December 20, 2017.

221G without any additional documents for 80 days
Had my first H1b Visa interview changing from F1 to H1 on Dec 29th 2017 at HYD. Visa officer mentioned it will take 2-3 days for processing and No additional documentation requested till now . Starting to get worried now as there is no update and contacting US Visa Support seemed futile. Is anyone in same situation like this ?
