get the I-94 corrected

its clearly an error on the officers part at the POE. You can easily get it corrected. I realized an error on my I-94 after a day, went to the airport and called the INS from there. They sent an officer out, who took my passport in, made the correction and brought it back out. Didn't take too long. Should be easy. Don't worry about it. The only thing that was kind of unsettling was that the officer was staring at me in a weird way - it was their mistake and it meant 4 hrs time away from work for me; at the end of it, we just have to be grateful they do the needful. Its just too much to expect courtesy from them. Take all documentation with you.

08/20/2004: Correction of Errors on I-94

People frequently see the errors on I-94. When the I-94 is issued as part of the change of status or extension of status by the USCIS and one finds an error on it, people should go to the local USCIS office to correct the errors. People can appear at any local district office of USCIS.

When one finds an error on the I-94 which was issued by the inspectors at the port of entry, which is not uncommon since the CBP started a procedure of one CBP offier to conduct the three inspections including immigration inspection, agricultural inspection, and custom inspection, one should not go to the USCIS local office. People have two options to correct the errors. They can go to inspection offices at any international port of entry to correct the errors. It does not have to be the port where one entered. The other option is to appear at any "Deferred Inspection" unit of the local CBP office which is usually located at the same building with the USCIS local district office and correct the errors.
