Date of birth change in passport . H1 B amendment

Hi,

I have applied to correct my DOB in passport to match with my birth certificate. I discussed this with my attorney and he is of the view that H1B amendment is not necessary as amendments are only required for material change. Could someone please let me know if that is a right statement? If the amendment is not done, How can I get the I797/I-94 corrected which is a mandatory document to update SSN , Drivers licence etc…

Thanks!

Well, that is the general practice for amendments… But, in the past amendments were done to fix the changes in particulars like Date of Birth. You can double check with another attorney. Yes, you should get it updated in some format, either in extension or transfer…
