H1b visa stamping process and Passport validity

[naresh.s]

Hi,

I'm from India and my H1b is processed by my company. Thru them I got the info that my application is selected in Lottery process.
My query is my current passport expires in July 2015 and status on USCIS site shows as "Received".

Will there be any problem since the passport is going to expire very soon ? In mean time I have applied for renewal and got the new passport with me. Is there any way I can get it updated in H1b application (Form I-129). Or will be cause any problem in Visa stamping Else will my application go thru RFE process ?

Please let me know your inputs.

There should not be any problem. Passport with 6+ months of validity is required when you attend the visa interview.
