Login in to Rate this Post:     0       ?        
I am on 17 months OPT extension and my employer is filing for my H1b this year in april. My atttorney has me fill out some questionnaire and one of the is like below:

Provide consulate to be notified of consular processing , even if you do not plan to apply  for your visa abroad  at this time:
City:
Country:

I haven't left the States since I was here in 06 and have one I94 that i was handed over in 06. If/when my H1b is approved,  what's the next step? Does the changes of status automatically reflect as soon as it is approved? or do I have to do sth? is the above step sth for when i want to go back to nepal? Or filling that out means i must go back to nepal after H1b is approved?

Seniors, please clear my confusion!
Appreciate your help!
