I am in an interesting bind. Last time I came back from India, the immigration official put an incorrect date on my I-94 card. He looked at my H1B fo my old company and put the expiration date on the I-94 according to this. He overlooked the fact that my current H1B had a an expiration date for much later. At the time, I did not notice this error, but just as I was getting ready to file my I485, my attorneys informed me that I was out of status because of the I94 date and that I have to get into status before I can do that. According to them, the only way I can do this is my leaving the country ( out of North America) and come back in again. I am told that one does not always get a new I94 when visiting Canada from the USA and coming back. Is anybody aware of any other way of getting the date corrected on my I94?
Thanks.
