Hi,
My employer has applied for H1B visa and got it approved. But in the visa approval document, it is mentioned that the consulate that i should go for stamping is Mumbai. Since i born, bought up and working in South India, idealy i have to go to Chennai consulate to stamp the visa.
In the visa approval notice, it is mentioned that, i have to submit I-824 form to change the consulate to Chennai. But when i searched in the net, many sites says, this may take upto 2yrs to process the form I-824.
When i contacted my employer, he said it is not an issue, his lawyer can write a mail saying that I can attend visa interview in Chennai consulate.
Can you please help me with your valuable advice?
Regards,
Sony
