I hold a B-1 visa set to expire on 23rd Sep, and I-94 set to expire on 26th Sep. I plan to go to mexico on Sep 14th and return on 17th. Upon my return, will i be allowed to re -enter? What would potentially be my new I-94 expiry?

As I understand it there's a good chance you'd be readmitted until the 26th, but you might be able to talk your way into a new six-month period. On the other hand, if your plans for your time in the US are not well defined, or if you raise the proverbial red flag for any other reason, such as the amount of time you've recently spent in the US, you might be denied entry altogether. Without knowing these details, it's difficult to give a useful answer to your question. Can you add them?

Are you visiting Mexico by land? The CBP officers at the Mexico border (particularly in Tijuana) are very picky about your onward travel plans if your visa or ESTA are due to expire. An I94 can be renewed at the border for $6 (prepare to wait in line for this) but only if they are satisfied with your visa renewal or onward travel plans.

B1 is business visitor visa. When you return, will it still be for business purposes? Or do you mean B2?

@Midavalo the expiration of the visa isn't an issue in the least. The problem will be the recent visit, as well as, possibly, the purpose of the visit.

The question will be why do you want to re-enter? Are you likely to overstay? They will want to know a lot about your onward travel plans and how you plan to vacate USA timely. If you are eligible for an extension they will want to know that you know that and will want to know that your plans don't rely on approval you haven't gotten yet.

It's very common for I-94s to extend beyond the visa expiration date. The visa only needs to be valid on the date of entry into the US. Even then, there are exceptions, thanks to automatic revalidation where you can reenter the US with an expired visa within 30 days after leaving, subject to certain other conditions.
