Fixing the Record: Help With Your I-94 Arrival/Departure Record

Your I-94 arrival/departure record may seem like just a simple document, but it’s the proof of lawful entry (I-94) that determines your eligibility to stay, adjust status, work, or even apply for a green card in the U.S.

If your record has errors or is missing entirely, the Law Office of Roxanne Rochester can help you retrieve the arrival and departure record, file an I-94 replacement request, and make any necessary CBP I-94 corrections.

What Is an I-94 Record, and Why Does It Matter?

Every time a non-U.S. citizen enters the country, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) creates an I-94 record to document their arrival and how long they’re authorized to stay. It includes:

  • Your name and passport number
  • The class of admission (visa type)
  • The date of entry
  • The date you must leave

You need your I-94 for many immigration processes, especially when proving lawful entry for adjustment of status or green card applications.

Common I-94 Issues We Can Resolve

Unfortunately, I-94 records can be lost, contain errors, or fail to be issued properly. If you’re dealing with any of the following, we can help:

  • Lost I-94 record fix for paper or digital forms
  • I-94 replacement request due to missing or stolen documents
  • Date or visa class errors needing a CBP I-94 correction
  • A mismatch between your passport and your I-94 info
  • Trouble locating or printing your electronic record from the CBP website

Mistakes can delay visa renewals, green card applications, and even job authorizations. Our firm works quickly and thoroughly to ensure that your I-94 record matches your official entry data.

How to Retrieve or Replace an I-94 Record?

When you retrieve the arrival and departure record, it usually involves searching the CBP database. But if you’ve traveled often or have changed your status multiple times, records might be incomplete, or retrieval might fail. That’s where we step in.

Here’s how we help:

  • Submit a formal I-94 replacement request through USCIS or CBP
  • Communicate directly with CBP for manual searches or corrections
  • Provide support if your record is needed for an adjustment of status or other legal processes
  • Help you submit additional evidence to prove lawful entry (I-94) if your digital record can’t be found
