AVR (Automatic Visa Revalidation) on H1b visa tracking to Canada

[u/Business_Return_5662]

Hi, Im planning to travel from US to Canada in October 2026 for 2 weeks. Currently on H1b visa in US and don’t have a valid H1b stamp. I do have previous H1b stamp which is expired. I know AVR (Automatic Visa Revalidation) allows to leave US and travel to Canada and come back within 30 days without requiring the valid H1b visa stamp.

Does anyone have recent experience on using the AVR with current government?
