Default passport stamp.

Hi again everyone,
I have for the last 2 years become a frequent visitor to the US, I have my next flight booked for May 13th. While getting everything together I noticed that on my last entry in February the stamp had a date stamped across it, usually it just has valid for 90 days. Well this time it was stamped with 14th May 2009 which was the 90th day from when I last entered. I only stayed in the US for 2 weeks in February, so I was just wondering if this is likely to cause me any problems, I have traveled in the past before the previous 90 days were over but it was never clearly stamped with the date?

Also I am staying in Seattle and planning a short trip to Vancouver, I will (if I get admitted on the 13th of course) be doing this within the first few weeks of arriving so I will still have approximately 70 days available time on my visa waiver stamp, does this permit me re entry or is there a possibility of refusal on returning from Vancouver. Any input would be gratefully received.

I'm pretty confident they know when you last left the country.

Many people are unable to add properly, so it's easier to give an exact date rather than just write 90 days.


... does this permit me re entry
All else being equal... yes.

When you go to Vancouver, tell the IO on exiting the US that you are coming back, they will let you keep the I-94 stub in your passport.
Otherwise you will have to pay $6? for a new one on the way back.
