H1B petition is in progress, can I travel to Uruguay now ?

Hi,

My company file my H1B on 4th of June, and it is in Initial Review stage. And now I have got an another opportunity to travel to Uruguay(i think it is on work permit basis).

My question was, if I travel to Uruguay now will there be any issues of rejecting my H1 at the time of VISA interview.

Also, can I attend the VISA interview in Uruguay or do I need to come back to India, for the interview. Please advice. Thanks.
