HELP I-131"Class of admission"

[Mike445 28]

I came into the USA from Canada as a visitor as I do almost every weekend. My wife and I decided (for reasons not being disclosed here) to file for adjustment of status.  I'm currently filling out form I-131 and there is a section asking my CLASS OF ADMISSION.  I don't have an I-94 nor was my passport stamped.  I pulled up to Lewiston border and as usual they asked a few questions, looked at my passport (I assume they swiped it too) and admitted me without any secondary inspection.  

 

My question is what do I put for CLASS OF ADMISSION?  Thank you!

You can get a copy of your i-94 online here (you'll need it for the AOS packet as well) https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home

 

Once you input your info, the i-94 should tell you your class of admission. I believe most visitors from Canada are given B2 visas (don't quote me on it).

OKAY...I jut did this and it comes up "No record found for traveller"

I cross every single weekend at Lewiston/Queenston.  When I go to view travel history it comes up with all my visits including my last entry on August 2 2019.

Mine is always B2.

 

My most recent i94 says B2 as well.

Thank you.  Should I put B2 in Class of admission spot without any record of an I-94?  I don't want to put something down if there is no record of it.  As I said it shows my last 100 entries into the USA (dating back to 2015) but when we enter the info for the I-94 it states no records found.  I definitely need clarification on this.  Thank you.

Should be B-2. Could technically be B-1. Doesn't matter...go with B-2.

 

That said, you are supposed to provide a copy of the I-94 (printout usually) for the I-485. You may need an I-104 to get it if it's not showing online. Although, try a few different ways to enter your info to just see if it's a spacing issue or something. It should be based upon your travel document's (usually passport) information exactly as recorded on the document.

Yup, a deferred inspection site is another option to get it.

Thank you.  I tried different ways and combinations.  I put in all passport info (with and without middle name) and still nothing comes up. When I put the SAME info in History it shows my crossings.

Thanks.  I tried everything.  Only thing left to do is call a deferred inspection site.

Many Canadians do not get and I-94 that is nothing new. All that needs to be done is write in Canadian visitor land crossing. They are well aware of this with Canadians.
