H1 Revalidation (SL August 28th) and I-94 Issues

Sorry..I think I pressed the wrong button without completing my previous comments.

Starting all over again..it will take some time to read my points. please bear that and help me.

I have sent my papers for revalidation on Aug 27th and
SL date is Aug 28th.

Need to find the DC received date.

Checks were cashed on September 10th.

You guys know where the checks will be cahsed? Once the app reaches DC or in SL itself?

Leaving that issue aside, I have to explain something here. This is going to be a long one, please bear with me.

I was working for company A from Feb 2001 till July 2003. I got the visa stamped against that company A in my passport and that was valid up to Sep 2003. I visited India in June 2002 and came back from India in July 2002 (on Company "A"'s visa).

While entering, the Customs Officer stamped the I-94 till March 23, 2003 which matches with my passport expiry date. In Feb 2003, I applied for a new passport and received a new one in the same month which is valid till 2013. [Now, I have an old passport in which my visa was stamped till Sep 2003 and the new one with no stamping].

Even though I had my I-94's date as March 23rd 2003, I got an amended H1 from Company "A" which has an I-94 which was valid till Sep 2003. According to that, I think that I was not out of status. Right? Now, I have two I-94s.

One which has a date till

March 23rd 2003, I call this "I94-A" and
Sep 2003 and I call this "I94-B".

Recently in July 2003, I have switched jobs and got a new H1, {and the H1 has a sentence saying that my [I-94A]'s expiry date has been noted wrong by the customs officer} ofcourse along with new I-94 and I call this

"I94-L" which is valid till Apr 23 2006.

While sending the documents for stamping I did not send neither Original "I94-B" from my amended H1 from Company "A" nor Original "I-94L" that came with my latest H1, which I realized is a problem later and was the dumbest thing that one can do ever. I cursed myself many times which did not help me though.

Instead I have sent a photocopy of the latest "I-797" and "I-94L". But, my old passport has the "I94-A" stapled to it.

Now, tell me what you think:

1. Whether my new passport gets stamped against the latest H1?

2. Was or Is it a problem if we did not extend the I-94 that had a date which was equivalent to my old passport's expiry date even though I had an I-94 that bore a date which is equal to my visa expiry date from Company "A"? Was I out of status anytime?

3. Now, having a new H1 and new I-94 which is valid till Apr 2006, would that be considered as the latest and the stamping will be done?

4. Or, the documents will be sent back asking for original I-94 since that was missing?

5. If they cahsed the checks that means the scrutiny is done and the papers are ok?

And also, if they send me the documents asking for the original I-94, should I send all three I-94s or only the latest one or "I-94A" and "I-94L"?

I would really grateful if anybody can answer this. Thanks for reading this long story of mine.

Thank you,
Sesha_Kiran

For visa validation you need to send the latest I94 Original or certified copy(Notarized).


4. Or, the documents will be sent back asking for original I-94 since that was missing?

You will get the documents back asking for the I-94.

5. If they cahsed the checks that means the scrutiny is done and the papers are ok?

No.After the checks are cashed they can send the papers.


You can expect your papers back asking for I -94 between 70 to 80 days(i.e during the last week of this month or may be we can say Dec first week because lot of holidays are in Nov end) from the day you sent the documents to St.Louis in the present situation.

But if you recieve the papers back and send them immediatly with the I-94 , you will recieve the passport stamped in 10 to 15 days.
 
AUGUST - Visa revalidation tracking

Hi Leo,

Thanks for the reply. You just confirmed my thoughts. I am waiting for the papers to be returned after which I will send them along with original I-94.

Thanks,
Sesha Kiran
 
I just called visa office, and the rep said, my visa was not printed yet. She said, that they have been working over the weekends to catch up with the visa revalidations. She asked me to call them back again tomorrow.
 
manishg_in:

I don't think that is anything you can do right now. I've been waiting for 7 days after they said was printed and sent, and this morning I just spoke to one of the ladys and she said wait, wait, wait, is nothing I can do to help you. :rolleyes: Just keep checking you UPS tracking number.
So I just cancelled my travel plans for this weekend.

gerbar.
 
gerbar,
I am sorry to know that. But isn't it showing on UPS tracking yet? You had scheduled a pickup yesterday, right?
 
correction for DS156 error

Hi cutieelily,

Here are My SL & DC dates:
SL# Aug 21
DC# Sep 29

I found small mistake in DS156 form which i send for revalidation. In your case they accepted corrections.
So I am planning to resend my 156 form to the DC office via Fax & UPS.
I don’t want disturb the DC office employees to find procedures.
Can you send me the details like Covering letter for the fax/UPS and mailing address for the ups?
Please send me the details to my mailid:rajum02@yahoo.com.
 
manishg_in:
Yes I did schedule a pick up, but I think the package was not ready to go. I am calling UPS right now.
 
AUGUST - Visa revalidation tracking

Hi guys,

I found my documents were received by DC Office on Sep 24th.

SL Date - Aug 28th
DC Date - Sep 24th

The lady said that it will take 10-12 weeks from the day they received the documents at DC.

As I missed my original I-94 along with the documents, Is there anyway that I can send that as an addendum? Please let me know.

Thanks,
Sesha_Kiran
