i797 validity

[newbee1]

Hi,

 

I have my H1 as part of 2011 quota.

 

I changed my status from F1  to H1 starting oct 2010.

 

My h1 visa is rejected in june 2011.

 

My H1 (i797) is transferred to new employer and approved in sep 2012.

 

I came to US in July 2013 with the transferred I797 and H1 visa.

 

Now my question is until when my H1 is valid(about the 6 years of H1).
