View is pushed down by about 20px, but is fixed when I rotate screen

I have a viewcontroller(Nib) that is invoked from two different places. When I invoke it from one place, all looks fine but from the other it always seems to have a 20px(looks like enough for the status bar) offset up top..

If I rotate the device this goes away and it looks OK..I've been troubleshooting this since yesterday with no luck - As far as I can tell I'm not doing anything different when I load the screen..

I'm not really sure what code to paste, as from both places they are being called in the same way, I'm looking for any ideas - even if it's not an answer as I seem to be out of ideas.

I hope that these questions will help us and you to pinpoint the problem:

  1. Are you invoking the VC using Interface builder or programmatically?

  2. Have you added any or none constraints?

My best guess would be that you try to load the VC from:

- (void)viewWillLayoutSubviews

rather then 

- (void)viewDidLoad

The reason for this suggestion is that the screen bounds are not properly loaded in viewDidLoad which you can check by printing self.view.bounds.width & self.view.bounds.height. In viewDidLoad they are not set correctly. This can lead to many later problems. This is just a wild guess.

Hope it helps.

Did you try setting edgesForExtendedLayout in viewDidLoad?

if ( IS_OS_7_OR_LATER && [self respondsToSelector:@selector(edgesForExtendedLayout)] ) {
    self.edgesForExtendedLayout = UIRectEdgeNone;
}

EDIT: here is the iOS 7 Transition Guide from Apple if you want more info on how this is fixed for iOS 7
