    Question about I-94 Hi, does anyone know if I should submit my COS app with my original I-94 or just the copy is ok? If original required, does that mean the one that came with the H1B approval notice? or the one you got when first entering the country?

    H1-F1 help!

    another related question thanks for your reply. If I file the I539 change of status form, there is a similar question on the form. If I answer 'no' to this question, will they find it out somehow? or I am just over-sensitive to this ? thanks again
