ramaz65w Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 Hi, Recently I got a new job after I received the job offer I've to travel to India. I'm currently on H1-B, So I asked my employer to hold on H1-B Transfer until I return back to states. My New Employer did waited until I returned back but unfortunately they seemed to have used the old I-94 for filing the H1-B Transfer. Today I received the Approval for the New Employer but it has the older I-94 valid until 1/2022 where as my latest I-94 with my current employer is valid till 11/2019. My concern here is should I travel outside the country as both I-94 are different to join the new employer. Details : New Employer : I797 Approval from : 1/08/2019 to 1/1/2022 I 94 validity with Old I94 Number : 01/08/2019 to 01/11/2022 Current Employer : 1797 Validity : 10/31/2017 to 11/16/2019 I 94 Validity with New I94 Number : 11/16/2019 Please suggest if I can join the new employer without travelling outside the country. Do I need to visit USCIS field office to make corrections with the I94 #. Thank you. Link to comment
