Hi everyone,

I’m currently on an F-1 OPT visa with a few months remaining. I’m employed and will also be applying for the STEM OPT extension.

I wanted to understand whether I should renew my B1/B2 visa, as it’s expiring soon. I’m considering it mainly because having a 10-year tourist visa could be helpful if I need to return in the future.

Additionally, my H-1B was picked this year, so I wanted to check if renewing my B1/B2 visa could cause any issues with that process.

Would appreciate your advice, thank you!
