My mother is visiting on her B-2 visa and recently applied for an extension. If the receipt notice does not arrive before her I-94 expires, does she need to leave the U.S.?
19 Oct 2023Answer
In order to remain in the United States in a period of authorized stay, the B-2 visitor must file the application to extend or change status prior to the expiration date of her current I-94. There is no requirement that the receipt notice be issued prior to the I-94 expiration date. (19.Oct.2023)
