AkkiK Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hello, My H1B visa is valid till Oct 23, 2017. My employer filed an extension on June 20, 2017. While the extension is in pending state, I travel to India(emergency) in Aug, 2017 for 2 weeks and back to US with a old visa and I got a new I-94 valid till Oct 23,2017. Now I have few questions. 1. If my extension is approved, will I-94 will be attached to I797 or not, as my current I-94 is different than the one used while filing? 2. If Yes, Which I-94 will be valid. The one I received at POE or the one attached with I-797. 3. If I-94 is not attached, do I need to go for stamping and come back to US to get a new I-94? 4. What if my visa is not approved till Oct 23, 2017. Can I stay in US for another 240 days? ( I heard 240 days rule will not be applicable if you travel abroad while H1B extension is in pending state) Appreciate your help Thanks, Akki Link to comment

pontevecchio Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Forget I94 numbers. If your extension comes with an I94 that I94 counts. Link to comment
