Question

I have still 1year n 6mths before my passport expires can I renew in US cos I'll be there on H1 visa?

Answer 1

You should call your consulate or embassy for that. It's a very important question.

Answer 2

Yes, Take your passport to the postoffice and they can renew it for you. If you let it expire, you will have to pay $100.  Now you will only have to pay $60 to renew it.

Answer 3

It depends.  Citizens of some countries can renew their passports through their embassies, others can't; a citizen can only get a passport when they are at home.  You need to check with your own country's passport-issuing authority to find out if you can renew your passport while you're in the US.

Answer 4

where are you from ? which country ? if you would like to answer ? i will come back to check .......

Answer 5

Most countries will allow you to do this, but the only way to know for sure is by checking with your Embassy/Consulate in the US.  If you live in a major city, you can go in person (the best option).  You really, really don't want to wait until the last minute with this or it'll jeapordize your H-1 and if you're planning to go for your Permanent Residency, that won't be good.
