Yeah, I was hoping to do that, but unfortunately there are no appointments for H-1B stamping in India, so it's not possible to do that. So I've just been trying to find people who'd know about this.
Would you happen to know anybody who has done this, personally? I would love to ask them about their soft landing if they'd be willing to share their experience.
Yeah? That's great to hear. My situation would be slightly different, as I'd be coming from India, and then (hopefully) going to US on my H-1B. IS this likely to cause a problem?
