Hi Fellas!!

Thanks everyone for your replies.

I got my H1 B approval papers July 24th. I applied in premium processing and got the approval in 7 calendar days from BCIS, Texas.

I have question with regard to filing the I-824 form (Applicaiton for action on an Approved application or petition).

I am planning to go to India, to get my H1B stamped in Chennai in December. But do I have to also file the form I-824 and get its approval?

Can I go directly to Chennai US counsulate and get the visa stamped? Is the filing of the form I-824 complusory?

I have shifted from F1 to the H1B visa.

I request anyone to please throw some light into this issue.

Once again thank you all very much for your help.
