H4 I-94 dates mismatch between CBP and USCIS
My wife's H4 VISA stamped on her passport is valid until 9/12/2024 but on her arrival, the CBP agent gave I-94 admit until date as 8/16/2024 because her passport expires on that date.
I have renewed her passport and also has got approval for her H4 renewal from USCIS.
The new I-94 that USCIS sent us on the I-797A has the I-94 date valid starting 9/12/2024 until 9/11/2027.
There is a difference of 27 days between the expiry date on I-94 issued by CBP on her entry to USA and the new I-94 valid start date issued by USCIS.
Will these 27 days be considered illegal even though my VISA is valid until 9/12/2024 but I-94 expires on 8/16/2024 and approved I-94 has validity starting 9/12/202?
I checked about this with my attorney and he says it should not be a problem because USCIS knew about it and made the decision.
I am concerned about this and wanted to get more information if this could cause any problems if that 27 days being considered as an illegal stay.
Any advise or suggestions will be greatly appreciated in this matter.
