  • On H1B, Renewed passport & CBP updated I94. Do I need to travel out and come in to US

    I entered US last year with H1B, at Newark the CBP officer stamped my passport (old) with the expiry date of the passport (Sep 1, 2018) and updated I-94 to this date. My visa is valid till Jan 1, 2020 though. I got my passport renewed and I went to my local CBP office yesterday and got my I-94 updated to Jan 1, 2020.

    My question here is, do I have to travel out of US and come in to get my passport stamp updated before Sep 1, 2018 ?

    Or I don't have to, since I have got the I-94 updated to the correct date of H1B ?

    I94 is all that matters. Nothing else needs to be done.
    Just an opinion; Not legal advice.

      man, question for ya, when you went to CBP and got it updated your I94 expiration date to your visa expiration date jan 1 2018, did CBP keep using your old passport number or updating your new passport number?
