Hi,
I am currently on am h4 visa that is valid till 11/11/2014. My current u94 us also valid till the same date.
I had applied for a h1b visa this year with a COS. My h1b petition is approved effective 10/01/2104 but I didn't receive the new i94.
My employer state that the he has received a letter from USCIS stating the reason for denial is COS is that as per their records I left US on 06/21/2014.
Note here that I NEVER traveled out of the country in the last year. Though my ticket was booked on the above date but I didn't travel back!!
This seems to be a very serious glitch done by the airlines due to which my i94 records are inaccurate on CBP website.
My questions:
1) who should we contact to get the i94 records corrected? Is the airlines, CBP, USCIS and/or all?
2) can my employer get back to USCIS with all proofs of my legal stay in H4 and get the COS done now? Or do I need to go for counsellor processing?
3) can a new petition be filed with COS by new/old employer , under cap exempt?
Please suggest the options available to me now!! Thanks
