My hubby INSISTS that he was not given any papers upon entry to the USA. But all of the AOS papers are asking for an I-94 number. Is it possible that he wasnt given one?? He entered on the VWP.
Does he have an I-94?? |

They stopped giving out I-94s a while ago I believe, so it is very likely he does not have one, if he entered fairly recently.

It is usually a card stapled in the passport.

Actually, it seems that VWP entrants have not been issued the paper I-94 since 2010, because ESTA made the whole process electronic. I would write "N/A (VWP)", or something to that effect. USCIS will know he was not issued an I-94 since he entered under VWP.

That is because your husband entered on a visa (A K-1 visa). The OP's husband entered as a visitor on the Visa Waiver Program.My husband arrived in the USA (plane flew into Newark)in November 2011...his I-94 is stapled inside his passport. It's just a small piece of white paper that fits inside the passport.

Yes the I-94 still exists. People that come on an immigrant visa still fill out the white I-94 card and get the lower half when they go through immigration.
Visa waiver entrants used to fill out the green I-94W card. (W for waiver). That is paperless now since ESTA. The forms are asking for an I-94 which anybody who is skipping the normal immigration route (getting a fiancé or spouse visa) would not have.

Actually, a point of clarification here. All visa entrants still get an I-94, not only immigrant visas. This includes B2's, F1's, J1's, etc. The only people who do not get I-94s are people who do not travel on visas at all, such as the Visa Waiver Program people or Canadian Visitors.Yes the I-94 still exists. People that come on an immigrant visa still fill out the white I-94 card and get the lower half when they go through immigration.
