Hi All,
What are the options to update I-94 validity date on below scenario ?
Last Year, My employer filed my H1 B extension and I got 3 years of H1 B valid till 2018
In Jan 2016, I went to my home country and Got my H1 B stamped for 3 years same as H1 B validity date.
In Feb 2016, Immigration officer gave me I-94 validity date as OCT 2016 because my Passport was expiring in OCT 2016.
I got my new Passport.
Someone told me about visiting CBP office so I called them and they said you have two options.
1) Leave US and Re-Enter
2) Ask your employer to file I-539
However, My employer's attorney is saying that you have two options.
1) Leave US and Re-Enter
2) Filing H1 B extension.
I would like to know all the options I have at this moment.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks for taking time to read my post
