Hi,
I have been in US since 1997 and completed my Masters in Engineering. I transfered from F1 to H1 in 2001 and got my Stamping to H1b in Nov 2001. I visited India in Dec 2001 and came back. After that I changed by job 2 times and I am currently with my 3rd employer. I have valid H1B approvals. My stamping from the first Job is due to expire in Jan 2004.
I need to visit India in late Jan and I am thinking of getting my stamping again in Vancouver, Canada in Dec 2003.
I do not see much problem in getting my stamping done but just incase I do get rejected, the according to new law I can not enter US just on valid I 94.
THe question I have is *IF* I get rejected, will I have a problem coming back into US? Since my passport still has a valid stamping until Jan 2004, I dont think I should have a problem. I still want to be able to confirm that. I also want to know if the consulate can cancel my OLD valid visa as well along with rejecting my current application?
Your inputs will be highly appreciated. Since its been a while since I did this, could someone give me inputs on what are the documents I need to carry?
Thank you
Sam
