Requesting help on I-94 expiration

[preetk]

Hi, 

My situation is my current passport is expiring in May 2020, I renewed and received my new passport. How can I have I-94 updated with new passport information ? My previous H1b stamp expired in sept 2019. I got my H1b extension approved in sept 2019 and I didn't go for stamping again. So, I was wondering how can I get my I-94 updated without crossing border in this COVID-19 situation. Please advise me what all options I have in this situation. 

Any help would be really appreciated

Thanks,

PreetK

Try to call your local CBP office and see if they can help. In these current conditions hopefully they can make some arrangement.

If not talk to an immigration attorney to see what are your option, travel or file a petition.

You dont need to lin/ update the new passport with your H1B. You are good. When you apply for the H1B or when you travel and show your new passport they will automatically link it.

Staying beyond I94 expiry is not good. You don't link passport to H1b, you need a new I94 with the new passport
