H1B extension denied, and amendment approved

[rajats.mukherjee]

Hello:

I had my H1B visa valid till 12/31/2018, and my I94 was valid till 1/10/2019.

My employer filed extension on Dec 12 2018 when I was working in Mason, OH. On March 2019 my employer has decided to move me to a new work location for new client which is Horsham, PA. So my employer has filed an amendment request on March 2019 which is after the last visa and I94 expired, and the extension case was in progress. After the amendment for new location was filed, I moved to new work location (Mar 2019).

I got the extension case denial notification few days back (Apr 22 2019), so I was preparing to leave USA. Today Morning (Apr 25 2019) I received another communication from my employer that my amendment case got approved and also got the approval notice I797A with receipt date as Apr 24^th 2019. This I797A says notice type: Approval Notice, class H1B, and valid from March 08 2019 till Dec 31 2019. It also mentioned that the I94 is valid from 3/8/2019 till 1/10/2020. The I94 number is same that I received when entered USA, which was initially valid till 1/10/2019 as I mentioned above.

Now my question is: what will be my option now? Am I eligible to stay in USA and resume my work? Or I have to go back to Home country India and get the visa stamped and come back USA? Or anything else? Appreciate any valuable suggestion that can help me.

My mobile number is 513-550-8423. If anyone has some time to talk, it is really helpful for me.
