Have my H1b approved (consular notification) and need to get out of the US to get my stamp. Has anyone successfully tried getting this done in Dubai?

The website mentions UAE residents, but I’ve heard anecdotal evidence of non-residents successfully getting their stamps.

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
