i94: date authorized stay expired or will expire

[Paul Wang 0]

I am filing I -130 for my husband now. However, on item 14 "Date authorized stay expired, or will expire, as

shown on Form I-94 or I-95" under section C "Information about your relative", it confused me. The reason is that there is no a specific date for him to stay in US on his i-94. His i-94 only says that he can stay in US until "D/S" since he is a student hold under OPT period. I am wondering if anyone could advise us regarding this issue. Many thanks.

Then you put D/S. (It means "Duration of Status")

His I-20 has his authorized stay on it, you can put that. Although he is D/S you can either put the I-20 expiration date or the EAD expiration date

Good luck

there has to be a date he's allowed to stay until. Since it was not noted on the I94 then i agree as told.. use the date on the I-20.
