Hi
i got my H1 issued on July 2017. I could not enter into USA and utilize H1 as my parents were sick in India and hospitalized in India. I was attending them all the while. Now they have regained full health. Now I want to use my H1 and proceed to USA on job. Will i be allowed seamlessly to USA. What will be the questions asked for my situation at the port of entry. and how should i present my case so as not to get denied at port of entry.
Thanks,
Is your visa stamped? If so, carry your petition along with 129 and lca , all your project and client details as applicable. You may be asked about your role , location of work and nature of employment. If asked about the gap, you can simply say you were not travel ready. A letter from your company or manager about your proposed role , start date always helps. I hope that you have atleast 4 months of visa left.
Of visa is not stamped, the questions will be similar. Employment letter in this case more important.
It does not matter when you travel as long your petition is valid and visa has atleast 3 months left on it.
Hope this helps.
This is not a legal opinion
