@man utd & dim pastra: It depends on your work and your employer. If you are employed FTE by direct company not consultancy, it shouldn't be that hard. However if you are employed by consultancy, it might take very long time and it would be very frustrating. On top of that, you have a misdemeanor so i would say, things might get hard.went to Nepal for stamping last December and believe me, it ain't easy. I got stuck for almost two months. So i would recommend you to either go to Canada or Mexico if you could. Peace Sirus_Me

@jangali manab: I had one of my co-workers gotten H1B extension visa stamped last week from Canada. But it all depends upon your luck as well. @dimpastra: No, i didn't have any misdemeanor or anything on my records. I am just sharing my stamping experience. @manutd: Since you have full time, they might not check your criminal records. However i have one friend who got stuck for a while when they found out that he had DUI. Since seems like you worked campus bahira, so you might get asked questions about it. Safe bet would be only go while you have a GC. Peace Sirus_Me Last edited: 07-Mar-12 09:14 AM
