The automation creates an electronically-generated I-94 number which will not be known to the applicant and will not match the number on the paper I-94.  (Bright, huh?) So, this will cause problems for using the SAVE immigration status verification system for benefits.  This letter suggests how to weather the changes.  [Download]
