This is more complicated than that. H1B is a visa and a status.

As long as you have a valid H1b status, you can stay in the US indefinitely. Having a physical visa in your passport is optional, you only need it when you want to cross back into the US.



Correct.

Some DMVs like to pretend they are USCIS and they want to see the physical visa in your passport. Annoyed me to no end.
