What Is A Form I-94? Understanding the U.S. Arrival/ Departure Records

Following arrival in the United States, visitors (i.e. nonimmigrant visa holders, those from visa-free countries) are issued a Form I-94 which determines allocated length of stay. The Form I-94 used to be a paper form attached to the visitor’s passport. Now it is saved electronically on the Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) website. Unfortunately, many visitors overlook the Form I-94 which actually controls how long they can remain in the country. The Form I-94 is the official record that proves a visitor entered the U.S. lawfully at a Port-of-Entry (“POE”). It also shows exactly how long the visitor is allowed to remain.

Most importantly, this continued classification as a “child” is maintained for any subsequent EB-5 Form I-526 Petition, provided specific conditions are met. It may be interesting to note that under U.S. immigration laws, a “child” is defined as any offspring of a parent that is under 21 years old. Once a “child” turns 21, then
