What I 94 and entry date informationdo Iuse on spousal green card form?
I came to the US 6 years ago on an F1 visa. Then I visited home once 4 years ago; this is the date of last entry on the passport. I graduated and started working on OPT 5 months later. Then, a little over 2 1/2 years ago, my company filed for H1B and I got approved and got the I 797 + the I 94 attached. I have not left the country since. I got married to a US citizen 4 months ago and we are planning to file for my green card. I have 2 I 94’s – 1 from my return as an F1 student and 1 from my H1B approval. On places in the form where they ask for date of last entry I will use 4 years ago but what to use for the I 94 number?

In most cases, they try to match the I-94 on the H-1B approval notice from the I-94 of your last entry. If that is not the case in your situation, I would note the I-94 from the H-1B approval notice since that is the most recent actioin.
