The non-immigrant visa can be re-validated in US without having to go to th
e US embassy/consulate outside US by sending your passport and other documen
ts by mail. Only visas of type H, L, O and P can be revalidated in US. It ca
n be re-validated in US only if you had never been out-of-status in US. Plea
se note that visa is for travel only. So if you are on H1 and change jobs, y
ou can start working for another company as soon as you get the H1B approval

valid status is different from visa stamp
You get your H1 I-94 after your company applied H1 for you from INS. You can
stay legally in US with this I-94. But if you leave the country and back to
your homeland or other countries other than canada and mexico, your I-94 is
expired, and you have to apply a new visa and when you enter US, you get a
new valid I-94(while your visa may expire in 6 monthes or so).
If your visa is stamped with current status, you can mail you

发帖数: 62 | 3 My understanding is: If you are not planing to travel outside US,
or your visa stamp has not expired yet, or you didn't make the
unexpired visa invalid by changing the job....what the heck do
you apply the visa for? Save yourself some money, and don't bother
the officers in INS!!

CHANGE STATUS都可以去REVALIDATE，我是觉得好象不可以这样。

发帖数: 12 | 5 You may have to get a new stamp anyway, because the new rule for revalidation
requires that your last visa was expired no more than one year.
