FORM I-360 Instructions

December 10, 2012

Revised 01/07/2013

Reason for Change: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is in the process of automating Form I-94 Arrival/Departure Records to streamline passenger processing.. CBP enters data admission information into the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS) and the Arrival and Departure Information System (ADIS). Form I-94 admission information is used by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to search TECS and ADIS in order to verify applicant, petitioner or beneficiary status in the United States at the time an application or petition is filed. Additional data collection fields are being incorporated into several USCIS forms to enable verification of status in the United States based upon passport or travel document information captured by CBP at the port of entry, which also may be used to search TECS and ADIS. The changes being proposed will be made to reflect the I-94 requirements on the Form I-360 Instructions previously approved by OMB, awaiting posting to the USCIS website.

Page 7 General Instructions How to Fill Out Form I-360		New language 5. Regarding the I-94 or travel document: Provide the I-94 number which may have been received from U.S. Customs and Border Protection upon arrival and admission to the United States, or from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services if immigration status was granted within the United States.  The I-94 number is on the Form I-94 Arrival-Departure Record, which may be noted as the Departure Number on some versions.  If CBP did not provide a Form I-94 upon arrival/admission to the United States, a print out of the Form I-94 may be obtained according to the instructions provided by CBP.  Also, provide the date of arrival and the date that the current nonimmigrant status expired or will expire. If a passport was used at the last admission to the United States, enter the number in the space provided even if the document is now expired.  Also provide the country of issuance and expiration date. If a travel document other than a passport was used to enter the United States, enter this information in the spaces where “Travel Document” data is requested. A travel document is an identity document issued by a government or an international treaty organization to facilitate the movement of individuals or small groups of persons across international boundaries. This may include, but is not limited to, laissez-passer and emergency passports, United Nations travel documents, and refugee travel documents.
