I-797 Consulate different than home country

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As you are a citizen of India, you should be able to have your visa interview scheduled in India even if your I-797 was marked to the US Consulate in South Africa. I note that as opposed to the advice that you received from the immigration officer at the port of entry, it is generally recognized that an individual can use a prior company's H-1B visa to enter the US as long as he or she bears the original I-797 approval form from the second company.

How long do I have to wait in order to be able to apply for citizenship? Or can I do it now? Will my DUI conviction cause my application to be denied?

Depending on the dates, you may qualify for derivative citizenship where the DUI would have no bearing.

What can we do if I checked the status online still shows - No status?

It's not unusual for it to take many months to get security clearances. Sometimes it takes more than a year. Most USA consulates are very responsive to emails, so I would suggest emailing them to check the status.
