Hi,
I got the H1b approval on June 21. My current visa status is J1 which is expiring on September 15 after the Grace Period. My H1b starts from October 1st. I also got another notice from INS stating that I have to leave the country for the stamping. (DENIAL NOTICE FOR EXTENSION OF STAY / CHANGE OF STATUS FOR ALIEN WORKER). Also mention that notification of the approval of the classification has been sent to the consulate (which is India chennai for me). I can't stay in the country from September 15 to September 30.
Can I go to canada or mexico for stamping. How much time it will take to get the approval for I-824. Is there any premimum processing for I-824 approval. Or should I need to go to India only? Without I-824 approval can I go for stamping in different country is that possible? OR Can I extent my J1 status for another 6 months (I have six months left) Is that possible now?
Please advice this is very urgent I don't have time I have to decide fast
Thanks,
Lokesh.
