My current H-1 petition expires in mid January 2016. My employer will most likely file for an extension some time close to expiration so that it is approved in late December 2015. I plan to travel to India in Oct/Nov for a family reunion. My current visa expired on 5th Dec 2014 so I have to go for re-stamping when I am in India.
Can there be an issue when I go for stamping because my H-1 petition will only be valid for another 2-3 months? Ideally, how much time should be left on H-1 petition for visa stamping?
Since my employer is the same and since I will be going for visa renewal within 12 months of previous visa expiry, looks like I will qualify for Interview Waiver Program. Does that change anything?
Thank you for looking at my question.
