hi folks
i have a medical urgency/emergency as my father is admitted to apollo hospital delhi.
i never applied for AP , it has been 10 months on ead and i have already applied for renewal ....even though i still am on H-1B status as i have not used my ead. my last stamping of hib visa was 5 yrs back since then i have had 3- 4 H-1b but never stamped and i have never been out of status
questions

what constitutes a notice of emergency?

should i go to pittsburgh which is 3 hrs from me or philly which is 4.5hrs and will they give me an "emergency AP".and which day of the week and timing, do i need an appointement

do i need a actual ticket or a travel agents iternary will suffice.

any other tips or caveats that i can use
 
I think since you have not used your EAD till now, you can go and return on H1 visa as you said it still valid.

Well, this is my personal thinking not sure about the accuracy.

Good luck!
 
Since you are still on H1B and have not done stamping, you could travel to India and before your return get your visa stamped there. However, with the happennings around the world, dont risk it as all embassy's may close down and you will be stuck. (read fucked). So this is not advisable.....

Since you legitimately are going to India to visit your ailing Dad, go to the nearest center and get an AP. They do issue these single entry AP's. Do not consider 3-4 hours a burden to travel, given the circumstances. Go during normal business hours. This is the best alternative.....

Lastly, we hope that your Dad gets well and you do not have to go at all and in the mean time you get your GC.

Thanks....
 
I concur
