can i travel after days after filing I-1485 and before obtaining receipt/

routine

Registered Users (C)
Guru,

my attorney is giving me different messages. First was told that i cannot travel before receiving h1-B receipt notice. Subsequently was told I can travel. I do have my H1-b which is still valid till year 2004. Please advise if anyone is in the same situation.
 
No Title

If the H1 is with your sponsoring employer, you can. You should have a previous H1 stamp in the passport.. Just show the H1 stamp + I797 to the POE. If you can get a new stamp (if the travel is to your home country or canada or mexico) you can show that too.
INS site has specific information about non-requirement of 485 receipt for people on H1 in its FAQ section...
