  • H1B extension and Passport renewal.

    Hi,

    I have my H1B valid till Aug 2016 and my employer is ready to apply for the extension next week. I am going to India this November and have to go for stamping.

    My passport is expiring in May-2017. I cannot renew my passport before may-25, 2016. I have to get new passport before I go for stamping.

    I am thinking of applying for H1B extension with the current passport(which still has one year validity) and will apply for the passport renewal after H1B extension is approved and that too before going to India.

    Do you see issue in getting new passport after the extension? Has anyone gone through similar situation?

    - Thanks in advance

    I don't see any issue applying for extension with your current passport.
    This is just my opinion, not a legal advice.

      Thanks.

      But, When I go for stamping I will have new passport. Will that be okay? since I would have applied for extension giving my old passport details.

        It should be fine. Take both old and new one with you.

        This is my opinion not legal advice.
