Digital Form I-94 (Not Paper) Issued Upon Entry into U.S.

May 20, 2018 News

By Attorney Gail Seeram

When you enter the U.S. as a visitor, no longer will you get a white or green paper with your name, stamped with your entry date and with the date your stay expires. In our digital age, Customs & Border Protection (CBP) launched a webpage that will allow you to retrieve this information. The portal will provide you access to the date and port of entry of your arrivals and departures from the United States for the past 5 years.
When you visit https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home you can retrieve your I-94 arrival/departure record number and five-year travel history by entering your name, date of birth, and passport information.
Clicking on “View Travel History” will return a five-year travel history based on the I-94 records, which you also can print.
Clicking on “Get Most Recent I-94” will return the I-94 number, most recent date of entry, class of admission and admit-until date. Please note that the system does not reflect changes of status, extension of stay or adjustments of status granted by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. You then have the option to print the record.
WHAT HAPPENS AT THE PORT OF ENTRY WHEN I ENTER THE UNITED STATES?
Upon arrival, a CBP officer stamps the travel document (passport) of each arriving non-immigrant traveler with the admission date, the class of admission, and the date that the traveler is admitted until.
The current processing time for entering foreign visitors’ travel information into the I-94 database is 30 days or more. This new automation process for Form I-94 will provide immediate upload and access to arrival and departure information for all travelers to the U.S. So, when you enter the U.S. you will no longer be given a white paper (Form I-94) to fill out with your name and it will no longer be stamped with your entry date and required departure date from the U.S. Instead, your passport will be stamped with your entry date and required departure date.
Our office recommends all travelers to review and print the information that will be placed on-line at https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home for accuracy upon their arrival into the U.S. As with any process that is electronic, there may be errors and you want to ensure that your arrival and departure records are correct so you have no problems or issues with your next entry into the U.S. and with future adjustment of status. The new automation process for Form I-94 only applies to passengers entering the U.S. with a non-immigrant visa – it does not apply to U.S. citizens or permanent residents (green card holders).
