H1B Visa vs Petition

[visacase]

Hi, the first 3 years of my H1B expire in Nov 2008 but I have the I797 with the I94 card expiring in Dec 2009. Do I need to inform my company to renew my H1B visa after Nov 2008?

My H1B visa

You mean the stamp? Thats irrelevant. You only need a new one if you travel outside the US.

My H1B visa

It seems your H1 Visa stamp in your passport is going to expire in November. If you have valid I-94 then you can stay in US till I-94 validity. When you go out of US then to enter US you will have to get H1 visa stamped in your passport from US Consulate.

Yes, my Visa is expiring in Nov 2008 but the I-94 is valid till Dec 2009 as I changed my original employer. So, am I eligible to stay & work in the USA till Dec 2009?
