I94 Expiration Date

[WARPed 0]

Hi,

I came to the US under a K1 visa on July 1st 2008. I married my fiance on the 14th September which is within the 90 days of entry required. The date 90 days from entry would be 28th Sept 08. Looking at my I94 as I am filling in the AOS forms it shows the date I was admitted as 1st July 08 (correct), my class as K1 (correct) but Until has 21 Nov 2008 written next to it (not sure idf this is correct). My understanding was that the I94 was valid for the 90 days in which I had to get marriend and therefore should have an until date of 28th Sept 08. The date written there is actually the day my K1 visa expires (6 months after issue from the London Consulate). Is there a problem here? Is my understanding of what date should be there on the I94 incorrect or is the date incorrect. Can anyone see this being an issue for AOS? Does it give me more time to file and remain in status as it is looking like I will be a few days over the 90 day limit when i mail it off unless I cancel my Honeymoon to do paperwork.

All advice gratefully received.

I guess that even if you don't know what the rule is...if you can look to see what your I-94 date is and how it compares to your timeline (90 days. K1 expiration) that could help.

Thanks.

The 90-day limit on the I-94 is to get married. Once you get married you will remain legal in USA even if you file the AOS a year or two later. Only reason it is suggested to file AOS as soon as possible is because once the green card comes you can have so many conveniences, like working legally, driving license, etc. There is no time limit for filing AOS so enjoy your honeymoon!

They may have made a mistake on the date they wrote in. But that should not affect your AOS.
