New I-94 not issued in Canada border via land
Hi,
Few of our friends along with me entered Vancouver (Canada) via land in a visitor visa (one time entry) for 3 days. While entering Canada Border the officer verified all the documents and asked for how many days the trip is and allowed.
While returning back to US, verified the documents and let entered to US.
We all are in H1 and everyone had a valid visa.
Q: 1. Is the office supposed to keep the I-94 while we entered Canada and give us a new one when we entered US border.?
2. Will there be a problem in H1 visa extension?
Please suggest.

Regarding H1 B visa stamping
Hi
I attended H1 B personal Interview and Interviewer put my case for administrative processing, it’s been close to 8 months now. I don’t see any updates on it, moreover my petition is valid only for another 2 months.
what if I didn't get any update for another 2 months, whether my Visa will be granted for additional days or the complete petition is void after the Petition validity period.
Kindly suggest
