Am having H1B vis expiring in Dec 2022. Since I relocated to different state last year end, I have filed H1B location amendment in Nov 2021. Few days back I have got the amendment approval I-797A document with the validity from Dec 2021 to Dec 2024.
Does this mean I can stay in USA till Dec 2024? Or Do I need to consider this is just for location amendment and need to file H1B extension ?
Amendment with extension of status is already approved and if your I-94 attached to the I-797 is valid till 2024, you are all set.
Thanks for your response. As company filed only as H1B location amendment with the valid visa expiring in Dec 2022, company says extension is provided by mistake and I need to file H1B extension anyway. Any thoughts?
You need to talk to your company immigration lawyer.
