Travelers with a Mexican border-crossing card (the laser visa) who plan to make a extended visit to the United States during the upcoming holiday season are urged by U.S. Customs and Border Protection to apply early for their I-94 card to avoid expected delays at ports of entry in Arizona.

“With the holiday season just around the corner, we expect November and December to be very busy months at all ports of entry,” said Director of Field Operations William K. Brooks. “With that in mind, we suggest travelers needing permits to apply early and possibly avoid delays.”

Travelers seeking I-94 documents at ports of entry may apply at any time. This permit allows visitors crossing through Arizona borders to travel up to 75 miles from the U.S./Mexico border.
