I just want to be clear on Question 14 of the I-130( without making any assumptions)

Q14 asks:
How I (the immigrant) arrived into the country.

I came to the US with an F1 visa some 8 years ago, but since then I got a job and I am on my second term of H1B visa. My I94 states my last entry was H1B.


But should the answer to Q14 be, that I came as a "temporary worker" or as a "student"

Thanks
 
If you never left the US since arriving 8 years ago, you would answer about your 8 arrival years ago, which would be "student". But if you left the US since then, you would answer that question based on the status you entered with at your last entry to the US.

The latest I-94 you have doesn't actually state that your last entry was H1B, it just looks that way because it's attached to the H1B approval notice.
 
Even though I have left the USA and returned on my H1B visa..............you're suggesting that the answer to that question is still "student"?

Thanks
