Hi fishes! My spouse is planning to go to India but we would need to get her visa stamped before coming back. I see that getting appointment is such a huge problem right now. Can we get her visa stamped from a different country? In this case, we were considering Qatar, she grew up there and has her brother there. For what it’s worth she qualifies for Dropbox in India. How do I find out if Qatar works in our case?Deloitte

Yup H1B is a total of 6 years so you technically have until 2028. Plus any time you travel outside the US, H1B is “paused” so you can recapture that time beyond the 6 years too if necessary. That should be more than enough time. The only issue I see here is if PERM is resumed before June 2024 and your PED expires, you might have to redo that step
If PERM is NOT resumed*
After you exhaust your six years you can leave the country and come back after a year on any other non-immigration visa.
