mk1881 Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hi, Me and my husband returned from a india vacation on 03 march 2011. I'm on H4 and his on H1. Both of us have a valid visa till 05-28-2013. However, the cbp officer gave the valid date on my husband's I-94 till 05-28-2013 but mine only till 05-28-2011. This definitely seem to be a mistake on their side. Its already expired and I just saw today. How can i get this fixed? can i go to a CBP deferred location (newark airport) or do i have to go out of country and reenter? Please help...i'm really concerned. thks, /M Link to comment
amnion Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 I had a similar problem. I was flying back from UK and at POE (SFO) the officer wrote 02-13-10. The problem, the date that day was 02-14-10! So you see, he accidentally wrote 10 instead of 11. (I was re-entering using AP and they always parole you for an year). I didnt realize this mistake till I got home. Solution: its a bit of a hassle. You have to go back to the port of entry so that they can correct the mistake. Some cities may let u get back into the airport, for me, I had to go to the DOS office on samsone street SFO. U need to get an infopass/appointment. The first person I spoke to had no idea what I wanted. She sent me to the 15th floor. The lady there did was simply wrote over the '10' and made it into '11'. No sign no nothing no stamp. I got it done for my peace of mind. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 The CBP will correct it. Be polite. Link to comment
veni001 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Most of the time this is due to Passport validity! In any event you are accumulating illegal stay since 05/28/11, this could result in automatic denial of your AOS and or 3-10 ban to enter US. Talk to good immigration attorney immediately.

karsh143 Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Where and whom exactly do we need to meet in any airport to get this corrected ? Do the CBP officers have a specified office location ? Please advise. Link to comment
