    Default Re: Re-Entering the U.S. After Several Changes of Visa Status

    If you are stating that you have a valid H1-B visa and continue to hold a job with the sponsoring employer, then your re-entry on your H1-B visa should be non-controversial.

    If you have quit your H1-B job and intend to relocate to Canada, you should not attempt to reenter the U.S. based on the misrepresentation that you are in valid H1-B status. If you intend to return and get a job, you will need a new sponsoring employer and will need to 'transfer' your H1-B.

    Thanks for your reply! I will maintain my US job. I am only visiting Canada for a conference. So, just to clarify, I will be able to enter the U.S. using my expired B-2 visa stamp from 1995, and my current H1b I-94?

    No, you will not enter on B-2 tourist status because you are now in H1-B status. You will enter under your current, valid H1-B status.
