Hi

I did my Masters and then got a job in Company A who filed my H1b Visa on 10/01/2008 and valid until 07/25/2011.

I did not get stamped yet as i never leave US until now.

Meanwhile my employer applied for amendment as i was put into a project in another state and change in my title .

When i check the status it says "On May 7, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

I am going to my country on August 2nd week for my marriage and my questions are.

can i use my current I797 for visa stamping or should i use new I129 which i did not get yet?

can i use the notice as the proof of I129 in case they need it for stamping?

Also could somebody please tell me how long will it take to receive my I129 after the above mentioned status?

Thanks
