Thank you for this! Why is i94 admission date different than most recent travel history admission date?

Hi thank you. one quick question, in 2023 a Canadian snowbird stayed for 71 days in one entry (Aug - Oct) and in 2024 next entry in Usa statying for 120 days . (may -sept ) Totalling around 191 days, considering both per entry's days addition. (but if Aug 2023 - Aug 2024, as one full year is considered then its less than 180 days ) . So, q here is can that person stay visit and explore usa till sept 2024 . Q here is will it be counted as 191 days , by adding previous two yrs.? or separate as 180 days per entry. ?

Hi. Thanks for all your information. If you can answer this question it will relieve me of some stress. My in-laws enter the US 3days ago. Visa will expire in three weeks. Nothing was stamped. No i94 info given. I checked online and i94 is good till feb 2023. Do they have to leave before visa expired? Thanks in advance.

If I am a Canadian citizen going to school on a F-1 Visa and they issue me I 94 Visa. Will I be able to work on my I-94 Visa or would I have to apply for change of status?

My wife's very first entry in the US with FX1 visa category happened last april 18 of this year. For the last 6 months her social security number didnt arrive. She was interviewed last october 15 for social security number application in our local SSA office here in Moreno Valley, Ca. We are confused why the lady who interviewed my wife was looking for her I-94 while she entered the US with FX1 visa. I believe I-94 is not required for immigrants. Am i right?

Hi I really do appreciate for your time and free knowledge on going about these stressful immigration laws. Please can someone with a "withholding of remover" status change to a different status?

[legomeego]

Canadians are able to enter the USA for visiting purposes up to 6 months. I’m just wondering if a VISA WAIVER through I94 can be extended beyond the standard 90 day period to up to 6 months since I am Canadian.

I-94 are still issued if you cross a land border.

So since this COVID is putting the DHS temporary hold, I can’t get a original of my I94, all I have is a copy, but I need an original since I’m trying to get a job . And we moved from the FSM and came to The States in 03 under my parents, and only had a copy of my i94 card. It’s Hard getting information, and when I went Online to see my history, it said there’s no information under me. Any suggestions on what to do?

[kamranbk]

V informative. I have a British passport. Can I travel to USA from Canada by road on I94. Do I need ESTA if crossing land border at present time. Please advise. How much the land border crossing fee as well. Appreciated

Hi, Is there a problem with the immigration officer upon entry to the US if I will stay 175 days before returning using a B1/B2 VISA? I am planning to travel this coming July 20, 2022, and return on January 10, 2023, this is already a confirmed ticket. They might question me when I arrive in the US why it is so long, 175 days?

[leecharlie]

Does I-94 have the departure date information? If I try to enter the country a second time and there is only entry date for the first visit, how does the CBP know if I overstay during the first visit?

$400 if he wants to apply c11 category. If he waits about 160 days he’ll qualify for c08 category which is free.
