Hello all....

I was wondering if somebody has a similar situation or can advise me on this.

Met my husband while in Michigan a few years back. We got married last September in the US.
I was and still am employed in an American company, and I still have my H1B stamped on my passport, and valid. But since October, I moved to Italy to be with my husband (my petitioner) for his job, and I was able to keep mine as well working remotely. We filed our I-130 a little after my relocation and interview is set for March. I'm not sure how long after the interview I can get an approval (hopefully). But I will need to travel back to the US for work (2 weeks).

Is there going to be a problem for me to travel on an H1B during a pending family-based DCF application?

Thanks everyone.

No, it is not a problem. H-1B is dual status, which means it remains valid while you are going through the Green Card application process.
