When Should I Use Form I-102?
You may file a Form I-102 if you:

1.	 Were admitted at a port-of-entry (POE) in the United States (whether at a land border, an airport, or a seaport) and:
A.	 You were not issued an initial Form I-94, Form I-94W, or Form I-95; or

B.	 You need to replace your lost, stolen, or mutilated Form I-94, Form I-94W, or Form I-95.

NOTE: If you were admitted to the United States by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at an airport or
seaport after April 30, 2013, CBP may have issued you an electronic Form I-94 instead of a paper Form I-94.
You may visit the CBP website at www.cbp.gov/I94 to obtain a paper version of an electronic Form I-94. CBP
does not charge a fee for this service. Some travelers admitted to the United States at a land border, airport, or
seaport, after April 30, 2013 with a passport or travel document, who were issued a paper Form I-94 by CBP,
may also be able to obtain a replacement Form I-94 from the CBP website without charge. If you cannot obtain
your Form I-94 from the CBP website, you may obtain it by filing Form I-102, Application for Replacement/
Initial Nonimmigrant Arrival-Departure Record, with USCIS. USCIS does charge a fee for Form I-102. See Form
G-1055, available at www.uscis.gov/forms, for specific information about the fees applicable to this form.
2.	 Would like to replace a lost, stolen, or mutilated Form I-94W or receive an initial Form I-94W, but only if you were
admitted at a POE at a land border, or you were admitted at a POE at an airport or seaport on or before June 28, 2010;
3.	 Were granted an extension of nonimmigrant stay or change of nonimmigrant status after you were initially admitted to
the United States, and you need a replacement of your lost, stolen, or mutilated Form I-94;
4.	 Were not issued Form I-94 when you entered as a nonimmigrant member of the military; or
5.	 Were issued Form I-94, Form I-94W, or Form I-95 with incorrect information.
NOTE: If CBP issued your Form I-94, Form I-94W, or Form I-95 with incorrect information (for example,
misspelled name, incorrect date of birth, visa classification, or date of admission), you should not file Form I-102.
You will need to go to the nearest CBP POE or the nearest CBP deferred inspection office, in person, to have the
information corrected. For locations and hours of operation, visit the CBP’s website at www.cbp.gov.
