sisb Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 My H1 Extension was applied on Aug 2016 with I94# (XXXXXXX39). Also this I94 is tied to my EXPIRED passport. I have traveled outside US after filing my H1 Extension in Sep, Nov, Dec 2016, and my latest I94# is (XXXXXXX85) and is tagged to my NEW passport. My H1 Extension is approved in Jan 2017 and I797 document displays my OLD I94# (XXXXXXX39) from Aug 2016 instead of current I94. Please suggest: 1. Is it legal to stay in US with H1 extension approval / 797 document having old I94#(XXXXXXX39), instead of new or current I94# (XXXXXXX85)? 2. If not what is the process to correct this issue? Appreciate your response. Link to comment
Tjgarla Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 You are fine. You are legal to stay. Your new passport will have the old passport number mentioned in the last page which means it is the continuation. Don't worry you are fine Link to comment
