pontevecchio Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Search the forum for a few such posts some answered by the lawyers. It would seem a new approach is under way and you would seem to be fine. Shortened I-94 at CBP deferred inspection site Quote Link to comment
Zodiac System Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Get in touch with an immigration attorney immediately. You have to go by the "latest" I-94 date and in your case the latest I-94 is the one you received at the POE, immigrations. You may have to leave the country, get new visa stamping and then enter back OR file for another H1b extension "nun pro tunc". Good Luck. Quote Link to comment
