Please help with my situation.
I was working with company A till august 2002.H1B of company A was valid till jan 17,2004(6 year limit) and i have visa stamp also till jan 17th 2004 (6 year limit) of company A.
I was laid off by A and joined a company B in September 2002 after filing for H1B Transfer.I got the transfer and new H1B of company B valid till jan 17,2004 with valid I-94 till jan 17,2004..I have been working with this company B even today..I never sent it for stamping(to reflect the new company name) because i didn't travel...So,even today i have company A visa stamp in my passport till jan17,2004
The passport that has the visa stamp expired march,2003..The visas are still valid in that .I got new passport from indian consulate in NY with expiry date upto 2013.
Last week, i got the 7 th year extension valid upto jan17,2005 through company B with a valid I-94..
I thought of sending it to st.louis this week..But, now i have to leave to india for an emergency.
My question is with a valid visa of company A(jan17,2004) in my expired passport and with the new 7th year H1B approval,can i leave to india and come back before jan 10th..(visa expires on jan17,2004)..Is coming one week before the visa expiry date is ok?I can also show the officer my 7 th year i-94 and tell him that i will get the stamping done as soon as possible.
1.Can i enter 7 days before (jan10th,2004)the visa expiry date(jan17,2004)?
2.I have the visa stamp of company A in my expired passport..is this ok?
3.I do have the new passport and new 7th year H1B of company B which i will send to st.louis after coming back.
I would appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks
