H4/H1 stamping

[rajswaminathan]

I am currently in US on H1B. I entered US on L1 visa and got my H1 approval notice. For getting H1B stamping do I really need to go to my Home Country or can I do it from Canada. Note I have had L1 stamping on my passport in the past but never had H1B stamping.

Hi,
You can try your luck. But go well before the L1 expires, so that even if your H1 is refused at the border or if you are asked to go back to Home country for stamping, you can still re-enter US on your L1, and make alternate arrangements.
