Can I visit Mexico while my I-94 period still valid? 11 Answers as of February 01, 2012

Yes you can but any time you enter the U.S. they will determine where you are admissible and if you have been here so long that you are showing immigrant intent.

It would have to be authorized by US Immigration at the US-Mexico border, at the time you leave the US and hope to return. If not authorized in advance of your departure, they could readmit you to the US from Mexico as you have a multiple entry visa good for another request for admission.

The I-94 is only valid while inside the U.S. Once you leave, it is gone and you will need a visa to re-enter.

If you enter Mexico in land, you should be able to use the old but valid I-94 to reenter the US in land.

If you are going deep in Mexico then you will not have a choice but to fill out a new I-94 when returning to the US on a visit, especially if you return by plane. You will need a Mexican visa to go to Mexico as a citizen of Jordan. Your return to the US will be deemed a new application for admission so, make sure that your US Visa is for multiple entries. If it is for a single entry, then I recommend you start your visit in Mexico, then the US.

As long as your I94 is valid you should be able to re-enter the United States.

The I-94 card is issued to you every time you enter the country, once you leave, it's void. If your B2 visa is still valid, then you can come back with the B2 visa.

You used to be able to do that. Now you would need a new I-94 to re-enter the U.S. and you would have to have a multiple entry B-2 visa.

It is up to the officer at the port of entry.

Once you depart the United States, your I-94 will be taken by Customs & Border Patrol. When you attempt to re-enter, you will be treated as an applicant for admission all over again. As such, you cannot depart unless you have a multiple entry visa. At the same time, even with a multiple entry visa, you could have issues re-entering the United States. You will need to be prepared to explain the reason for your departure and the necessity of returning to the U.S. It may be advisable to schedule your trip to Mexico towards the end of your stay to avoid returning to the U.S.
