Reg. Stamping - H1B Transfer Approved and Extension pending

[vnd007]

Hi,

      I've had both H1B extension (Emp.A) & H1B transfer (Emp.B) filed. My transfer got approved and the extension is still pending. However, transfer to Emp. B got approved one day after the current visa expiration with Emp.A. Though the extension with Emp.A is still pending, my I-94 is valid for additional 10 days and got this approval within I-94 validity. 

If I switch to Emp.B, do I need to go out of the country for stamping ?.

Please advise with your knowledge / experience. 

Thank you !

Does your Approval have an I-94 date mentioned at the bottom of the page?  If you have one, then no need to go out of country for stamping.  (When you leave the country and return, your I-94 number and sometimes even the I-94 dates change.  Always make sure that your passport has enough days before expiry, to accommodate the I-94 validity).

Transfer to Emp. B got approved --- does this have new I94 attached? Is it consular approval.

If I94 attached then no need to go out of country if not I feel yes. Please consult Emp B on this. I feel they can help you out.

Thank you Zodiac System & Gopalakrishnach. I have not received the approved notice yet. Thank you very much, I didn't know that the receipt will have I-94 attached to it. I'll check it when I receive the notice.
