I am encountering an unusual problem. I got my H-1B approved couples of weeks ago. However the I-94# on the H-1B approval notice is incorrect due to Service Center error. It does not match up the one on my I-94 card. My lawyer who did the H-1B petition for me says that I can file an I-102 to have it corrected. But it's hard to correct the I-94# on my H-1B approval notice. What I can do is to apply for a new I-94, the number of which matchs up the incorrect one on the notice. What a weird policy! Actually applying for a new number is OK to me. The problem is that another lawyer is going to file my I-140 soon. And she uses my correct I-94# for my I-140 petition. I really don't want to get into this number trouble at this moment. By the way, I don't have an A# now. So I would like to ask the following questions:
1. Is the incorrect I-94# on the aproval notice a potential problem to my I-140 or 485 petition? If not, I wouldn't file an I-102 for the correction, or do this later?
2. If I must have the wrong number corrected, can I file the I-102 at the meantime with I-140 or 485? Will filing an I-102 cause any problems to my I-140 or 485 petition?
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks a lot.
