Folks, my wife (on J1 visa with waiver issued) and I (on H1) are planning to travel to Puerto Rico or Hawaii in December. However our visa stamps have expired but I have a valid I-797 and she has a valid DS-2019. Has anyone traveled to PR/ Hawaii in a similar scenario?

You don’t even have to carry your passport if you are going to PR/Hawaii - the driving license itself would suffice

Traveling to HI is same as traveling to any other US state. Your visa stamping does not matter.

Don't know about PR.

I am a field marketer. I travel and cover 12 states. HQ is across the US on the east coast. My manager put a surprise calendar invite twice now to go to home office without consulting dates to see if we were available. I stood up and asked to be included on available dates and said I will attend virtually but asking me to be away for 4 additional full days away from my family without asking me is not OK. I already travel a lot and this boundary is super important to me. Am I right or wrong?
