Your Immigration Questions Answered by VisaPro.

Here, you will find detailed answers to many of most common immigration questions.

20.How do I revalidate my H-1B visa?
  
 Getting H-1B status and getting your visa stamped are two different things that are often confused. Getting H-1B approval implies that you are authorized to work in the U.S. and getting visa stamped implies that your passport has been authorized to enter the U.S.

Usually H-1B authorizations are issued for a period of three years and the date stamped on your passport would be close to this period.

21.How do I get extension for my H-1B visa?
  
  H1B extension is the extension of authorization to work in the U.S but it is not the actual visa. In order to travel across the U.S you need to get your visa stamped against the new extension, this is known as H-1B revalidation.

22.What is the new legislation on H-1B visa?
   
  The most recent legislation on H-1B is the American Competitiveness in the 21st Century Act of 2000, which became effective on October 17, 2000. The new legislation permits extension of H-1B status past the six-year limit where a labor certification has been pending for 365 days or longer, regardless of whether or not a Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, has been filed. Another Act on H-1B is the 21st Century Department of Justice Appropriations Authorization Act, effective since November 2, 2002.
