A commonly asked question is what to if one has lost his or her I-94 card.
An I-94 Form is an Arrival/Departure card that is completed at a port of entry that shows your name, your I-94 number, visa designation, and amount of time allowed to be in the United States. It is stamped by the admissions officer at the airport where you make your entry and then stapled onto your passport. (Beware: Not always stapled)!
You need the I-94 card:
- When seeking an extension of stay
- When seeking a change of status
- When seeking adjustment of status/green card
- When departing the United States as proof of departure/compliance with previously granted status.
If you lose the I-94 card, you may request a replacement by filing a form I-102 with the USCIS office, and paying the filing fee required for the form.
