Can your H1B be stamped in another country or in the US?

No

Is there anyone who has gone for H1B stamping recently or have a visa appointment between now and 31st of December?

Has anyone gone for H1B/H4 stamping recently. I am in the US and I am planning on going back to do somethings and then go for my stamping on the 5th of January. I just wanted to know the situation of things as regards that. I heard visa appointments are be rescheduled in us embassies in India.
Additionally, what are the chances that Nigeria will me placed on travel ban between now and January?

Doesn't abuja have its own email like lagosiv and lagossniv ?

Or post this question on the US visa thread in case an other H1 visa applicant has interviewed recently

I can’t find another email aside this one.

Are you referring to the US Visit Visa thread? Or there is another one called US Visa?

Try reaching out to Lagos consulate via email.
As if your appointment would be rescheduled because you are flying in specifically with your appointment date in mind.
It doesn't hurt to try

It actually Abuja and I sent an email to ConsularAbuja@state.gov but got an auto response. It says to use Abuja visa navigator but I can see the option to check if rescheduling might be happening. I wish I could find someone going soon or have gone recently.

Listen to Dr Olu asekun podcast of Wed on YouTube. He mentioned the update about H1 and H4 visas being rescheduled so you want to consider your travel plans if appointment would be changed.
First 20mins or so is where he typically shares new updates for this administration.
He's an immigration lawyer

I only heard about India and china and those are high volume embassies. Just wondering what the situation is in Nigeria as we rarely get up to 80 H1B and h4 approval every month

I’m planning to return to Nigeria for personal matters and need to get my H1B visa stamped before reentering the US, as my F1 entry visa has expired. I’d like to hear from those who have recently gone through H1B visa stamping about their experiences. My interview is scheduled for the first week of January, and I want to understand the current situation, especially with new policies emerging frequently.

Btw I also have an approved I140

Hi everyone, I just got my H1B petition approved and I’m planning to travel to Nigeria for my H1B stamping. I’ve completed the DS-160 form and have my confirmation number.

When I went to usvisaappt.com to schedule my appointment, I couldn’t proceed because one of the tabs kept showing a “This is a required field” error. I’ve double-checked all fields, and everything seems fine. I even tried creating a new DS-160, but the same issue came up.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how were you able to resolve it?


(Ps: I know this is a student visa page but I think this is same process for all non immigrant applications)
