Hello All,

My company submited my I-129 petition on October 2002 and still waiting for approval. I need to go to India on April with new visa stamped on passport. Can I ask my attorney to upgrade processing to 'Premium Processing' at this stage? Is there any issues with this?

Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
VJ
 
There are no problems , I did the same , applied for H1b EOS in August , waited till Nov and converted to premium processing (paid $1000 + $150 attorneys fees as company was not ready to pay for premium processing ) , got H1b and H4 in 8 business days , sent for stamping on dec 12th to stlouis , hopefully , I should get it back in next 2 weeks enabling me to travel in feb.
you are cutting close now , convert to prmium processing ASAP , if you definitely want to travel in April
 
Thanks Nitin.. when I talked with para-legal, she was not sure whether we can upgrade to 'preminum processing' after 3 months of initial submission. Now I can confirm with her that its possible..

And what H4 you were talking about. I am going to India to get
married. Do I need to get anything approved from INS to bring her here?

Thanks for your help.

Congratulations for getting approved for marriage :)

You don't need anything preapproved to bring your Spouse , just the usual stuff i.e. paystubs , Company letter , marriage certificate and photographs etc
