Hi,
I got an O1 visa approved last year On 8 August 2019.
My I-797 A form says it is valid through august 2021 (3 years)
My O1 visa stamp was issued only for one year (aug 8th 2019 to aug 2020) - I’m from Mexico and we only get 1 year O1 visas, I should renew the visa now but embassies are closed due to COVID-19.
Two questions:
1. Can I re-enter the US before August with my visa expires but remain in the US with my I-797 status?
2. How do I make sure my I-94 has the same date as my I-797 Status when I re-enter the US?
I appreciate guidance since it’s a complicated matter.
