I am currently on a J1 visa for my Medical Residency program and my J1 waiver is in progress to start my J1 waiver job. Since the Department of State decision on the waiver is still pending and my J1 is valid only till end of August'13, I was planning to go to India and come back when the waiver & H1 visa has been approved.
I would like to know if there would be any complications in the waiver approval or when going for the H1 visa stamp since I would be out of the US. Or is it advised not to travel while the waiver processing is going on.
Thanks in advance.
