I am in US currently on H1B visa. I have I797 extension till Oct 2022 but my stamped H1B visa has expired on Oct 2019.
I have to travel outside US to my home country due to family medical emergency, can I come back before Dec 2020 (else I might risk losing my job)?
The recent proclamation is confusing as I was in US on June 24, 2020 but the latest visa stamped is of Oct 2019. The embassy in my home country is closed till further notice so I can't get my visa stamped. Is there any way I can come on the earlier stamped visa and I797 extension (same employer) or what are the other options?
Unfortunately, my travel is so urgent even if that means I have to leave everything in US :( .
