archana_alatkar Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Hi, I got my I 94 until April 29 2015 as my passport is set to expire on May 01 2015 during my re-entry to the USA. But I got my passport renewed after my re-entry. Where should I get my I 94 extended since I have I 797 until 2017? But I have my visa until Sep 2015. Is it possible to get the I 94 extended until the validity of I 797 instead of my visa without crossing the border? Thanks! Link to comment
jairichi Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 You have to cross the border. Exit and enter US with a valid visa and I797 and insist on getting a new I94. Link to comment
archana_alatkar Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Actually, I called the Customs and Border Protection Seattle (my local city) and they advised me to email them a request to get my I 94 amended with required copy of documents. They amended my I 94 within 24 hours of my email and the latest I 94 is valid until the expiry of my I 797 Thanks, Archana Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 You were extremely lucky that the CBP Office in Seattle choose to disregard their own rules. This should not in any way or form be given the notion that this is possible. Link to comment

You are lucky to get it done this way as normally CBP does not entertain these types of requests. Link to comment
