If you leave via an airport to an international destination (e.g. Paris France), the airline should collect your I94 card at the last point prior to USA departure. When you re-enter the country from an international destination, you will need to fill out the I-94 card to be placed into your passport.
There is one technicality, if you leave the US-Canada-other destination, they will not take your I-94, though you are supposed to surrender it. Usually they do not have a problem if you retain it.
Hi All,
Sorry for picking up this old thread but this is the most relevant I found when using the search function. I have a (potential) problem:
I am a EU citizen and visited NYC 6 days in early January. On my way home i flew LGA-Montreal-LHR-ARN. When I checked in at LGA the (biz) check-in staff didn't take my green I-94 departure card. Should I be worried?
I have tried to go through most US governmental sites but I wouldn't write here if they were clear and/or open for questions.
PLEASE - anyone with experience - should I do something?
Thanks for understanding my worries.
