RE:Visa Revalidation -- Passport sent to St.Louis

I would suggest to call the DC office and check whether they received your passport. Also, talk to the lawyer who helped in processing your H1-B.

Best of luck.

RE:revalidation - stamp expired for more than a year

You have to get your H1-B stamped outside US. Refer
http://travel.state.gov/hlop.html and instruction # 1).

I did mine some 3 years back in Chennai. After Sep. 11th there may be some changes(I am not sure). Please check this site itself or talk to your immigration attorney.

misdeneanor case reply

I apologize for replying late. This is what my friend did - he hired a criminal attorny for resolution of the misdemeanor case. The lawyer managed to get it resolved as something like a traffic ticket. Now, when my friends attorny applied for revalidation, the opinion of both the immigration and criminal attornys were to check "yes" in regards to question that appears in the Visa form asking for any criminal conviction. Accroding to the lawyers, she was convicted at the first place irrespective of what the outcome of the case was. At the same time, there opinion was to check yes whenever a question like this is asked. You may check with your lawyer.

Revalidation

Sent my for revalidation 12/17. Requested back on 1/23. Need to travel to India on Feb 20 for marriage. How do I get the current status of my application? They are not saying anything.
 
Try this

Hi,

Call 202-663-1225, Wait till the long message ends and it will take you to a visa officer... greet her nicely and tell her that you sent your passport for revalidation sometime like 11/10 and it reached st.louis on 11/11 and tell her that you r really worried about your status. Tell her that you have a emergency situation that came up and had to withdraw and brag and moan for some time. She should take your name, DOB and country and will look in her system. Verify if your request for cancellation was entered. Please keep your status posted.
