Hi all,
How important is the client letter for H1B New visa stamping. Does it depend on whether it is an EVC model and an MNC or not?
Please Help!!!!
Awaiting your thoughts and experiences.

Help Me !!!
Hi,
I am working for company X on L1-B and they have sponsored by H1 with COS. I was in Toronto on a business trip on Oct 25 and my H1 was approved on Oct 26. I wasn't aware that it was approved and I entered US with my L1-B.
Now my I-94 for sure had H1-B was for 2 days and as soon as I entered in US on L1 it again got changed from H1 to L1.
My question is:- Does this impact my H1 ? Can I go back to India and get stamped for H1 and come back again.
Note: I have valid L1 until Dec 2017.
Thanks in Advance !!!

H1B stamping 221(g) administrative processing
In the interview the VO did not ask many questions. He just read me my status and I said yes.
Q: What's your highest education?
A: Masters in Computer Science
Q: You did your masters in US?
A: Yes
Q: And you did OPT in the US?
A: Yes
Q: And you work for <Company>
A: Yes (It's an american company and not a client location)
VO gave me a blue slip with Additional Administrative processing checked. He said "Need to do some further processing, check the status online, it should change to approved in 2 days".
Me: Do I need to do something?
VO: No
Me: Is the Visa approved?
VO: I can't tell until I do some more stuff
Anyone had similar situation?

H1-B Stamping@Vancouver
Hi,
I got my first H1-B stamping in Vancouver.
Background:
Masters in US, job search for few months, then joined a consultancy, then full time.
VO: How long have you been working for ZZZ?
Almost an year
VO: Is this your first H1-B?
This is my first H1-B stamping, but i am in H1-B status since Oct 2012
What was your status before that?
F1
VO: You did not travel outside of US for the last five years?
Yes
VO: Did you change of status in US?
Yes
VO: Who is your previous employer?
Told him the employer name, he didnt fully understand it, so gave him my previous I797. He didnt ask for it
VO: What is your current guaranteed salary?
Told him the answer and gave him the employment verification letter. He didnt ask for it.
VO: What is your current title?
Answered
VO: you will get your Visa in 3-5 days. Gave me while booklet on employee rights.
VO took my passport and I797.
In a couple of hours, the Visa status in CEAC site changed to 'Administrative Processing'. It stayed in this status for a day, then changed to 'Issued'.
I opted for the passport to be delivered in one of the Canada post's office. Once i got the tracking number, i verified the status. To my horror, the destination was mentioned as 'Whitby, ON', I called the customer care, couldn't get much information. Went to the Canada Post office that i have selected as delivery location. They said it has happened for others too and asked to not to worry. Next day, the the status changed to 'Ready for pick up' in Vancouver. Apparently its some kind of a glitch in their system.

H1B New - Visa Interview (Oct 31st)
Hi,
I am going for my H1 stamping on Oct 31st at the HYD center.
I am from MNC (with employess 2.5+ Lakhs). My Company initiated my H1B petition with internal project and the same is there in my DS-160 form.
I have Manager Letter (instead of client letter) from my onsite manager which states about my roles and responsibilities in US as I will be working at my company location itself instead of client location.
So what kind of questions can I expect from Interviewer?
Will the Manager Letter be helpful without client letter?
Is it safe to appear interview with internal project or shall I switch to US project and appear for interview?
Thanks in advance.

H1B VISA STAMPING - WITH OLD AMENDMENT PENDING
My employer filed amendment in the month of Jan 2016 and later changed client in Aug where my previous amendment still pending (Case was received).
Filed H1B extension and approved even though my previous case is pending (Case was received), Now I am planning for H1B stamping either in India or Canada. Is there any chance VO will ask about my previous pending amendment? Anyone faced similar situation.

Is client letter needed for H1B stamping?
I'm planning to go for H1B visa stamping in Kolkata, India. I have recently seen many clients are not issuing any client letter to the contractors. My client is also not issuing. My question is whether client letter is being asked for in the visa interview these days?
