Hi Friends,
Need your valuable help and suggestions ....

- Traveled to US in B1 Visa Aug 25-2007 and 3 months I-94 period(till Sep 24-07) given, based on customer request, my India Company applied for L1 in DHS , CA 1 week before I-94 expiry.

- The processing attorney told I'm in lawful status, since L1 petition taken for processing.

- I received RFE (Request for evidence) from DHS for L1 petition with WAC number on it.

- In response to RFE, L1 denial we got on Jan 24 -08, I came to know from attorney on Jan 28 (1 mnt time given) and I got tickets for Feb 8 and returned India.


Q1: My company is again insisting to travel U.S in B1 Visa for 2 mnts from July 15 - 08, how safe is it to travel in B1 again . I have RFE with WAC number and L1 petition denial Copy

Q2: what are the implications and risk involved if I travel again in B1 now, any chance of visa cancellation ?


Thanks for your patience and help !!

Officially, as per the rules, your B1 is cancelled and void as you overstayed the I-94. You need to apply for a new B1. If the POE detects overstay, you will be deported without a new visa.
