Which I94 do I need to hand over while departing USA?

Hi,

I will be travelling to India this month for a short trip.
I have one I94 which is stamped on my passport. I have another I94 which I received with my recent H1b extension.
So do I need to handover both the I94s while departing USA or just the recent one?

Thanks!

Deb

The new I-94 should be attached to the old one, then give them together to the airline.

Also I would keep a copy of both old and new I-94 for personal records.

iamdeb I second what both gc0907 and justvisiting said. Staple both I94's together so that they can detach both of them and always keep a copy of all I94 cards you ever had this can be useful if you get a RFE on 485 for proving legal stay. I was in a similar situation like you in 2009 and did exactly the same as these 2 good friends have suggested.
