A:
When filling out Part 1, Question 26 of the I-485 form, you should use the most recent I-94 issued by USCIS after your asylum was granted. This document accurately reflects your current immigration status and is the relevant record for your application.
Keep the original I-94 from your entry as well, as it shows your initial arrival details. Including both can provide a complete history of your immigration journey, which may be helpful if additional information is requested.
Ensure that all information you provide is consistent and matches the details on your other immigration documents. If you're unsure, reviewing the form instructions or consulting with an immigration professional can help clarify which I-94 to use for each section of your application.
