Hi peace_of_mind: This is an interesting comment and caught me off-guard. I've a valid H1B visa and also an AP and I am planning to use H1B on my return back to the US. Can you post any links to substantiate that AP should supersede H1B OR is this just your thought only? Thanks in advance...

Re: Re: same :)

If you are in the US, you do not need to take a PCC from local Indian police station. You can apply for the same at the nearest Indian Consulate in the US that has jurisdiction over your place of residence. For non-US issued passports, they take 5-6 weeks to issue the same. I-134 is the...
