Automatic Visa Revaidation (AVR) to come back to US from CA on H1B

[mohit4u22]

HI Everyone, It's urgent! I have an expired H1b Visa stamp with valid i94 and i797. I read I can use AVR to go to canada and come back. I am going to canada in next two days. However, I am going to india next month for my visa stamping for extension so I booked the dropbox interview as well in delhi for next month. Can I still use the AVR to come back to us in this case?

Yes it's fine, as long as you go to Canada or Mexico for less than 30 days with an expired stamped visa but with an approved I797.
