i'm planning to be here on an H1b visa. i have heard that premium processing takes 15 days and after that we have to get a H1B visa stamped on the passport. Do we have to go back to our home country to get a visa stamping? cant we get it stamped in the u.s itself? i'm currently on B2 like most IMGs.anybody knows about it? please let me know

thanks in advance.

You have to book a date at an USA embassy near to you, get your passport stamped (ofcourse in India only).

You have to book the H1B interview date as early as possible.

Goodluck
