    H1 approval times

    well... My EAD expired July 31. My employer was going to file the usual way this March. I heard it was taking between 4-5 months to get H1 so I wasnt sure if I should file that way or go for Premium processing. What do you think? Is there a risk here? Have any of you got it in more than 4 months?

    H1 Help

    Where to apply?

    I am in the US now and would need to get the H1Visa stamp. My F1 visa is from Madras consulate. Do I have to go back to Madras consulate to get the stamp or I can obtain the visa from Delhi too? Does the place matter? Please let me know. Thanks

    F1 Visa Finances

    Can a relative in the US show full support for sponsoring a F1 Visa or is it desirable that relatives in India show part of it from a "non-immigrant intent" perspective? If people here have obtained F visas using support from their relatives in US please post so. Thanks

    For H1 Visa

    Hi, My brother is applying for F1 visa and I got my status changed to H1 recently. First is it wise to put my name in the visa application form? I need to get my H1 visa later this year. Hopefully by that time he will be here. So then would there be any problem if I put his name in my H1 visa...
