Last year November 25th ,2016 I came here to visit my sister and Officer stamped 6 months stay for me and l stayed until april 30th 2017. I wanted to visit my sister again this year to see her and my niece and this time the officer stamped 3 months stay in USA, is it gonna effect my next visit time to USA ? I mean next time if the officer see they stamped 3 months to my previous visit , They will stamped again 3 months or less ? l did not over stay or never be out of status.
Also I applied for extension (i-539) but l am not going to wait their answer because l do not wanna be out of status. Also applying for i-539 is negative impression on them ??
I know lots of people applying for it more than once and they did not have any problem when they entered the USA.
(Summary of my story: I came to United States on September 13th, 2017. My return ticket is March 5th, 2018. I was planning to stay here for six months. But the immigration officer stamped in my passport until December 11th, 2017 (3 months) .I applied i-539 for extend my Nonimmigrant Status. On the web site they told I need to send my form at least 45 days before my leaving time. I sent it 55 days before it. They received my form On October 18, 2017. I still do not hear from them and I called the customer service for asking if I do not receive my result until December 11th, 2017 (which they stamped in the airport.) They told me they are still working on March’s cases! (So why they are accepting new forms if they are very behind the schedule?) Officer told me l can stay during my cases is pending maximum period of 240 days.
If my application for extension is denied after my previously approved stay has expired and I am still in the United States, I will be considered “out of status” as of the date my original period of stay expired. And he told me they are going to cancel my visa and I need to apply for it in my country again. I do not want to take any risk and I will go back. )
