    If you have valid Visa in passport go to nearest border post and reenter and get new I-94

    This should be the last resort. By leaving the U.S. after you have
    overstayed your I-94 (from your most recent entry) by even one day, you will
    subject yourself to visa cancellation (222g) and technically, your visa will
    be cancelled and you will have to apply for another visa in your home
    country.
    Or Fill up Form I-102 to correct the I-94

    I don't see this as a solution.
    Or go to nearest local BCIS office to fix the I-94 problem

    If you can do this, it is the best solution. If you can't -- discuss the
    situation with a good attorney. In fact you should discuss this with agood
    attorney anyway.

    Hi Sylvia:

    This solution used to be wonderful in the town you and I share.
    However, Deferred inspections is now part of BCBP and not BCIS. Us
    lawyer types are a little frustrated on this score and it has been an
    issue of liaison and yet to be settled.

    The OP doesn't mention exactly what type of I-797 he has, but if its for
    an H-1, I would serviously considering using the 4-part error correction
    authority set forth in the regulations.

    Yes -- gather all the paperwork and go see a good attorney is
    good advice.
