Hi everyone,
I got my L1 extension approved on 8/11 till 8/8/18. My passport expires on 3/4/2018 though. I will be scheduling a visa appointment for end Nov, when I go to India. Can you pleasae help me by answering the questions below -
1) Will my visa/I-94 be restricted by the date of my passport expiration? If so, what happens when I get my new passport?
2) If the answer to the first part of question 1 is yes - I just tried to apply through the CKGS website for passport renewal (although it is >1 year away from expiration) because of change of address. I didn't receive any warnings for expiration being greater than 1 year away. WIll I encounter any problems and if not, how long would they reissue (extend) it for?
3) My passport number will change in case of reissue, correct? Would that be an issue during stamping as my passport number in the I-797 will be different? I am guessing no, since I will also have my old passport stapled to my new one.
Any help will be highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Prateek
