H1 [221 (G) white form] - H4 - H1 and travelling to India again

[sunnyhouse]

Hi,

I appeared for my first time H1 interview in India in dec 2012 and got the 221 (G) white slip. Immidiately after that I applied for H4 and came back to the US in Jan 2013 the same employer of mine (desi consultant) filed for my COS from H4- H1 and it was approved (got I-797) in April 2012. After that my client and location changed in June 2012 and my employer filed a new LCA but not the H1 b amended petition for change of client/location.

I am flying to india next week (due to family related matters) and will have to go for stamping again with all the other documents (Original I-129, Original I-797A, Client Letter, Vendor Agreement, Employer Letter, new LCA) except the H1B amended petition.

What are the chances of my visa rejection this time?

Thank You.

It is likely. Petition needs to be amended for the new work location.

Thanks kabkaba,

So assuming my visa is rejected..Can my employer then file an amended H1B petition next week after the rejection? As it is almost 8 months now since the change of client/location.
