Hi,
I applied for J1 waiver and DoS site shows favorable recommendation. However, I am yet to receive any letter from DoS and USCIS. Please let me know if I can apply for H1B right now or do I have to wait for documents from DoS/USCIS? Also, it would be helpful to know as to how much time it takes to get H1B approved these days. I want to visit my home country but am not sure if it will be risky to do so right now and if I should wait for my H1B to be approved before I go there.
I would appreciate any advice/suggestions.
