Valid H1B visa stamp for canadian immigration?

[H1Bapplicant]

My H1B stamp is expiring this february and i am also preparing for canadian immigration for Federal skilled worker program. Does anyone know if i need to have a valid h1b stamp on my passport to file for canadian immigration?

My H1B is valid till dec 2011.

Thanks in advance.

no u do not need a valid stamp
I did not have H1 b stamp on my passport and I had applied under FSW
I was on H1 B with receit only - no stamps
I never got it stamped and I already got my immigration to canada now - still no H1 siamp on passport
