I-94 getting expired

[tpmid143]

Hi,

When I changed my employer, I received a new I-797 and I-94 with expiration date of 2011.

Though I’m having my above new I-797 and I-94 handy, recently I left US and entered US with my old I-94 and visa itself (lack of knowledge) so they issued latest I-94 as per visa expiration date which is 2009.

Now I’m having both I-94s. Which I-94 is valid?
If latest issued I-94 is the only valid one, What should I do to get I-94 extension till 2011 without leaving US?

I-94 getting expired !!

Hi tpmid143,

I have the same problem as you. I did not show the new approval notice from new employer at POE by thinking old one is still valid and got I-94 only till Oct10th, 2009 though I got a new petition from my new employer which is valid thru April 2011.

Did you go to CBP office and got your I-94 corrected? Is that possible? I posted the same question in yahoo answers and one person answered that I need to apply for a new petition extension.

Thanks,
Babu

You can go to the CBP and get it corrected. You have to produce both I797s at POE and not just one.

Can I directly go to CBP office and get my I-94 corrected? Is it so easy? Because we go through POE only when entering the country right, right now I am already in US!! That is why I am kind of wondering.

Thanks lot for your reply. I really appreciated.

Regards,
Babu

You need to go to the deferred adjudication office of CBP at the airport ASAP.
