Your h1b amendment petition should take approximately 2 weeks for processing and up to 100 days for approval or more than depending on the circumstances. During the 2 weeks you should get a approval notice, your notice should allow you travel to get the h1b visa stamp provided your purpose of travel was clearly stated.

Then you need your H-1B to be approved prior to getting a new one. Will your employer or you pay to PP?

Renewal at TX (8 weeks turnaround) at 172 days today

8 weeks normal turnaround per USCIS

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
