The I-94 Card is the white admission card that is stamped by an immigration Inspection Officer and given to you each time an entry is made into the United States. This card is the key document for determining your admission status category (and permitted purpose or activity), when your status expires and, in the event of a conflict, takes precedence over the Visa expiration date.

In adjudicating visa applications, Consular officers are guided by U.S. laws and regulations. The issuance of non-immigrant visas is governed by the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, as amended. U.S. immigration law places the burden of proof on the visa applicant to show that he or she is not an intending immigrant.

Answer: Yes you may. However, the immigration Officer may, upon your entry and inspection into the US, only issue your I-94 Admission Card for the validity of your previous Visa.

If this happens, you may be returned immediately to your foreign point of origin.
