Hi, I am on a H1B right now and looking to transfer it to another company. But I havent left the country since I came here to study with a F1, so my i94 still says admitted on F1 with expiry as D/S. should I be worried about my transfer ? was I supposed to leave the country to get an updated i94 ? Anyone else that faced a similar issue ? thank you.
Your New H1B(the one you are on) should have an I94 attached to it.
This. Usually F1 -> H1B yields an I797A, which contains an I-94 at the bottom.
I just got an approval notice. Does it contain the i94.
CBP keeps track of the i94 shown at admission time. USCIS however tracks your latest one. The dates on the latest i94 are valid and previous ones are void
Is my previous entry date still the one on the old i94 ?
Yes, you can verify it by going online and viewing it on CBP website. You will see all entries corresponding to the i94 that you had shown to CBP on your last arrival.
Your I797 has the new I94 date. If your within that date your good. The i94 website usually updates when you travel or have got some new transfer on h1.
Same case here. attorney didn't raise any issue while initiating transfer. Haven't received response to petition yet so dont know
Thatโs nice to hear, thank you.
