H1B Holder - Need to renew Canadian passport

Post Mon Oct 24, 2011 3:00 pm

I got my first H1B this Oct. But, my passport expires in August 31/2012. On my I-94, the officer put end date to August 31/2012.

What I plan to do is:
Renew my passport over mail.
Next April or May, I will travel to Vancouver. On my way back to US, I will show them my H1B paper and my new passport asking for a new I-94 card.

Did I miss anything or should I bring some additional documents, should I contact the company lawyer for some additional guidance ?

I know I am being paranoid, but just want to be sure. Thanks !

Yes, your being paranoid. You will be given the remainder of your valid H1B status without any fuss at all. This is very common at airports. No lawyer needed.
