...cont...the country while its still pending for decision impact my H1B application in any way? Any help or input is appreciated.

OP, my employers waited till I came back from my recent vacation to file my extension which was approved.

Thanks VP1. I believe I’ll be in the country when they file the RFE response but will probably fly a day or two after the RFE response has been filed.

if your current stamp is okay you can travel, no impact, the RFE will take a while to even file and everything, I got an RFE in October while I was traveling in Italy and it was not even filed to USCIS till late December. No problem getting back as long as your current I797 still valid and stamp okay.

Yeah...logically yes...sorry about that

OP, did you use premium processing? I know you said it’s a family emergency but if you can get the approval notice before leave the country, that would be the best case?
