I-94 Expering in 6 months

[Shib]

Hi,

I'm in my 6th year, My I-94 is expiring on 6th Oct 2017 (based on pervious employer stamping) current I-797A is expiring on 13 Feb 2018.

My perm is approved and company preparing to file I-140.

My attorney said that I can get my 1 year ext. on the basis of my approved perm. On the other hand my manager asked me to go to Canada and the get stamping done and get new I-94 with the current I-797.

My Question here is will there be any issue if I go for stamping with the current I-797 while my extension petition (on the basis of approved perm) is pending /in process  with USCIS.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Shib.

You are under a misapprehension. Approved PERM gives you no benefit for H1 extensions.
