Hello all,
I recently changed my status from F1 to H1B within the US after completing my Masters degree on F1. Now I am thinking of visiting India and also get the H1B stamped in Chennai.
I have the following concerns.
1. Since the state dept changed the drop box rules in July, I cannot apply for stamping by Drop Box system. Are there any risks when appearing for an interview?
Also which is a better choice, do get my Visa Stamped in Canada or Chennai.
2. I was looking at my approved LCA recently and found that the Wage Rate is $2000 lower than the prevailing wage. I have read that the wage rate has to higher than prevailing wage, if that is true what I don't understand how my LCA got approved and I-129 approved.
Does the consular officer look at the LCA and my payslips and raise questions, how can I explain if he/she asks any questions about the lower wage rate than prevailing wage.
Any kind of help is appreciated.
