Need advise on my current status. I94 expired on 24 Aug.

Hi All,

 

Current Valid H1b Visa till Sep 20 2015.

 

Current H1B Validity: Sept 20 2015.

 

I94 Valid till: Aug 24 2015 

 

Old Passport Exp: Aug 24 2015 (Renewed and have a new passport now).

 

Sent H1B extension packet on Aug 20 2015 and reached USCIS on Aug 21 2015.

 

Received USCIS receipt confirmation on 24 Aug 2015 and USCIS tracking shows 25 Aug 2015 as receiving date.

 

My question is am I still in status now, since I have applied for H1b extension before my I94 expiry?

 

Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

I am in similar situation. 

How can you will be in legal status ? As I read from various forums, any single day you live after your I94 date would be illegal.

Your new I94 with H1b extension will be issued based on current H1b end date which is from Sep 21, 2015.

 

Since your I94 expired on Aug 24th does that not mean you are staying illegally ?

OP is considered staying in legal status based on the fact that a H1B extension petition was filed before I94 expiry date.
