DS-2019 transferred to new university, do i need a new visa stamp?

[swatiseth29]

Hello All,
I came with J1 visa (Postdoc at UCLA) on February,2014. My visa is valid until February 2018. I have transferred my DS-2019 to another university (UCI) as I am starting a new postdoc there . I have new DS-2019 from my new employer but with the same SEVIS number as before. My visa stamp reflects my previous employers name though the SEVIS NUMBER is the same. I'll travel to India in February 2017. Do I need to apply for a new visa? Or what should I do? Please let me know.

Thank you in advance

No. Your current visa is fine.

Thank you newacct. Will the CBP officer accept that my employer name is different on my visa but SEVIS number is smae? or will i be questioned a lot for that?
