Hi,

My friend is currently on L2 Extension and working on EAD. He holds his Master Degree and PGDCA. He was not working in IT before. After he came to US , he attended trainings and working in S/W now for the past 5 months.
His current employer has applied for H1 and My Hubby got his H1 approval. His L2 Extension is valid until end of 2008 and his H1 is approved until mid
of 2010. He has the Approval notice with I-94 for both H1 and L2.

He is going to India along with his wife ( L1 holder) during Oct 2007 for some important personal
work.

1) Can he go to Mexico to get his H1 stamped during the first week of
October though it's his first H1?
Incase if his H1 gets rejected at Mexico, he can go back to India from
there to get his L2 stamped and come back to US ?

2) Instead of stamping his H1, can he go to India and get his L2
stamped and come back to US ? After few months he can go to Mexico and get his H1 stamped. In this case he can re-enter to the US either in H1 ( if gets stamped) or on L2( if H1 doesn't get thro)

Please guide/advice us what would be the best option to go for?

Your input will be really helpful to us.
