I already have a H1 Stamping on my passport which is valid till 2011. I got it stamped when I was with my previous employer. Now I changed my employer and got my H1 transferred to my current employer. I received my new I797 approval. I am traveling to India next month. I am not sure if my previous employer had cancelled my H1 visa or not. Do I have to get my visa stamped again when I travel back to the US?

Hello,
My question is related to this thread,
I have transfered my H1B visa to company B and got the I797 approved till October 2012.
I have a valid Visa stamped through my previous company A till March 2010.
I want to travel to India In december 2009 or January 2010.
I dont want to go for visa stamping in India to get company B's visa stamped as I already have visa till Mar'2010.
Can I come back to USA with out going to stamping in India as my previous company A visa is valid till March 2010?
Is there any risk factor involved?
I hope this is not a repeated question, if so please let me know the link of the thread posted.
Thanks,
Sarif

You can use the existing visa to re-enter U.S provided you return back before it expires. Show Company B's approval notice @ POE to get the I-94 till Oct 2012.
