Additional Info / Notes | I am a student in OPT STEM transitioning from an F-1 to an H-1B visa. Once I got to the H-1B interview, the VO told me that there was a problem in their system with my F-1 visa. For this reason, he could not approve my H-1B immediately, and that the US Department of Sate needed to be contacted first. My interview was on Thursday, December 15th, and the VO said that in the best case scenario, my visa would be approved on Tuesday, December 20th. This is so damn frustrating. I am wasting money and vacation days in Mexico and my company in the US is getting annoyed. UPDATE 1: Status updated to "21 December 2016", but still under AP. UPDATE 2: Status updated to "Issued" on 22 December 2016. Picked up my visa that same day at the embassy, and travelled to the US the next day. Best of luck to all. |
