My Husband’s application has been picked up in the lottery and a CASE Id is generated also. We are excited to know this. But, his passport has validity till next February only. So after he applied for H1B (sent all the required scanned copies of passport, educational certificates, experience/offer letters, salary slips etc) in March 4th week,He has applied for renewal of his passport and has got it done successfully. It means, now he has a new passport that has 10 more years of validity. My question is, the new passport came with new passport number. Would this be a problem for him during documentation or visa stamping? Now, he has old passport and new passport with new passport number and in that, it has the old passport no. also. But he has sent the old passport scanned copy for application filing. Based on this situation, shall he be having any issues during H1B processing? Pls suggest/help us.

Hi Friends,
I am also in same situation this year, I selected in h1b 2022 lottery with my old passport number.
Passport will be expired on 19-Jan-2022.
So what is the best approach for me.
Shall I go with old passport for documentation submition and get a renewed passport for visa stamping?
Or
Shall I get the renewed passport and the go with new passport number for documentation submition?
Is this give any trouble as I have given one for lottery and another one for documentation?
Can you please provide your valuable suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
