ishanp Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 H1B filed under the cap in 2014 has I-94 attached to it and it says that I-94 is valid till 08/20/2017 but few months ago I filed the H1B amendment because my work location got changed. 2 weeks ago I got the amendment approval without I-94 (I-797B). I have two questions: 1) can I continue working in US ? 2) is there any time duration within which I need to go to my home country and complete my H1B stamping ? Please Help. Thanks a lot in advance.
jairichi Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 1. No. 2. ASAP. Did your attorney check with USCIS why I797 did not have an I94?
livliv Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 You can certainly work. There is no I-94 because the amendment did not request a separate extension of status, that does not invalidate the previously issued I-94.
ishanp Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Posted June 19, 2015 Thanks for replying. My attorney said that he will let me know today the reason for not getting I-94. But my attorney said that I have a valid I-94 from the petition filed under the cap in 2014. So even I have a valid I-94 still I need to leave the country and get my stamping done immediately ?
saikiran111986 Posted July 8, 2017 Report Posted July 8, 2017 Hi Ishanp, I am in similar situation. My H1B Amendment got Approved(I-797B) without I-94. My Employer is asking me to go to India for Stamping. Could you please let me know, if you have left the country and got the stamping immediately. My most recent I-94 says i am valid to stay till 9/21/2018
