  • Update I-94 on H1 B Visa

    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

    Did you try contacting your local CBP office and request for the I-94 updation?
