I have submitted my documents for LCA application to travel to a client location but it will take a long time to process. Can I travel to India to get my stamping still or do I need an LCA?

Doesn't a pending application for an amendment become void if you travel out of the US?

I am wondering the same thing

You can’t file LCA if you’re out of the country. Hold off filing the amendment until after stamping is done.

I am filing from United States but will be travelling to India before it gets approved

I just traveled to India while my amendment was in process (it still is!). I was told that traveling abroad is safe as long as I’ve a valid H-1B visa. Just send your latest I-94 once you’re back in the country. Good luck!

Not hard and did not scare her, but the act of “aggression” took me by surprise and I felt terrible about it. I’d like to be more proactive about toddler psychology, what’s to come and how to react/ teach. TY!
