My H1B cap visa got approved recently. However, I only got approval till first week of Feb 2020.
1. Since the duration is very short, other than getting the stamping done in India asap, traveling to USA immediately, and then filing an extension with the i94 that would be still till first week of 2020, what are my other options?
2. Is filing an extension from India without traveling to USA not possible? If this is possible, what are the criteria to continue having the eligibility to file an extension or an H1 transfer using the cap-exempt status?
Would really appreciate a quick response due to the time constraints.
Thanks in advance!
