What is Form I-94?
Form I-94 is an Arrival Departure Record that has the information about the date of entry into the United States, class of admission and when the authorized stay expires. Whenever a non-immigrant enters the United States, Form I-94 must be completed at the time of entry into the United States. If entering the U.S. by air or sea, the transport line will give Form I-94 to the non-immigrant and if by land the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials will give a blank I-94 form to the non-immigrant. If I-94 is lost or stolen you must file Replace Arrival Departure Record. The I-94 form has two sections – the arrival record and the departure record. Both the sections must be completed by the non-immigrant. The upper portion of Form I-94 is the arrival record and has the following information: • Admission Number • Name • Date of birth • Country of Citizenship • Gender • Passport Number • Airline or flight number • Country where you live • City where you boarded • City where the visa was
