Has anyone had any experience (good or bad) obtaining an H1 visa from Canada after April 1, 2002. Before this date, you could re-enter the US within 30 days even if you were denied the H1 visa in Canada but if you met certain criteria.

Congrats on getting the visa. Did you think about what would have happened if they had denied the visa?

Did anyone have an H-1 visa denial in Canada or Mexico after April 1?

My friend and I went to get Visa stamping in mexico on May 3rd 2002 and we got it. We were on H-1 and there 2 other indians who came for F-1 stamping. Everybody got the visa. If all the documents are there then no problem at all.

you can get the appointment more than 30 days before (in some consulates upto 90days). 2 weeks might not be enough lead time for an appointment.
