Question details
I really appreciate ur efforts here.I had one question to ask u if u can answer humbly.I am a doctor from india and i had got a residency in internal medicine last year.I got my H1b visa stamped but coulnt go to usa coz of some reasons.So the hospital got my H1B visa legally cancelled.This year again i have got residency in another hospital and they r ready to sponsor my H1b visa.I wanted to ask u that will there be any problem from USCIS in processing my petition this time as my visa got cancelled last year.As i have not told this hospital about my visa cancellation last year will that be a problem.Will my petiton be processed in a routine way this time too by uscis.
It looks like your visa was not canceled, you just did not use it. Note two things. First, non-use of an earlier issued visa should not create any problems in the future. But second and much more important, you HAVE to tell the hospital that you had an H-1 earlier. As far as I know, there is a question on the H-1 forms that specifically asks that question. Not answering the questions on the forms truthfully can get you into trouble. Check the forms, if there is no question that asks about any earlier H-1, you are fine.
Finally my wife and I, received our GC. This journey lasting over 12 years. It has been a long journey to GC approval. I would take this opportunity to thank Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his entire team. Special thanks to Mr. Rajiv Khanna, for all his help and guiding me at each step of this journey, including multiple H1B renewals and EAD renewals. There is no words to express my gratitude and once again thank you. He is very informative and detailed in the documentation for each filings (H1B,GC). All along this process working with Prerna on regular basis - very helpful, always responsive and quickly returned my emails and had my calls scheduled with Mr. Rajiv Khanna whenever required - and Mr. Khanna always listened to my concerns, no matter how amateurish or complicated they sounded. His feedback and opinions were honest and very helpful in the constantly changing immigration rules and policies. I have been working with Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his team since 2007. It's a pleasure working with each and every member of Rajiv's team in this journey. I would like to thank Prerna, Bharthi and Amrita with whom i worked in the GC process. Once again thank you all from the bottom of my heart and my appreciation to everyone else who worked on my case.
I would highly recommend "Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna" to anyone who needs help with immigration related issues.
