Hi,
My 1st 3yr extension (my H1 is valid upto 2010, first expiry in sept 08) is coming up. I want to go to Toronto for extension.
I'm working in NYC, and have No US degree.

1) Is it wise to go to Canada for H1 extension even if I don't have a US degree?
2) How long does it take to get the passport with VISA stamped back after interview?
3) If I drive upto toronto - what is the procedure involved at the border? I have a transfer(I changed jobs but didn't get visa stamped) I-797 receipt with an I94 + an I-94 which was given to me when I entered the states. Do I have to surrender both I 94s at border?

Please help

Thanks
 
Answers below:
1. Yes you can still go to Canada for visa stamping. Please carry the educational evaluation.
2. Due to PIMS verification plan for a week.
3. The more recent I-94 overrides the old one. Generally it is not required to surrender the I-94 at the border (while crossing over from the U.S. side).
