check with the laws on it... you may have an issue as most visas do have a time frame involved.Check with the place you got your visa

I-20 is for student visa, not a tourist one.\n\nIt is a form that a university sends you after you apply to them and they admit you. You take this form to US embassy/consulate and apply for the F-1 student visa.

Your approved stay in the U.S. does NOT depend on when your visa expires --- it depends on the date on your I-94,  Arrival Departure Record expires.  You received this when you went through Immigration at the airport or land port-of-entry.\n\nThe I-94 is a little white card that will has your name and stamped or written on it, will have your entry date and the date by which you MUST leave the U.S.\n\n Unless you file a form requesting an extension of your approved stay, you will become illegal the day after the I-94 expires. Just because your visa expires April 2007 DOES NOT mean you can stay in the U.S. until April of 2007.  In fact, it DOES NOT mean that at all.   If you stay in the U.S. after the date of that your I-94 expires, you will be illegally in the U.S.  This will also have the effect of automatically canceling your visa, and will most likely prevent you from getting a new visa in the future.  \n\nNOTE:  If you need to extend your stay in the U.S., you must file the form below with the Service Center in your region and the office MUST receive it before the date your I-94 expires.  \n\nAlso,  to get the extension you will have to show you have a valid passport.  So do that quickly!\n\nGood luck!

You don't need and extension for a greencard unless you are talking about a renewal! If you intend to be gone out of the US for more than a year, you will need a reentry permit I-131.

If you are just passing through(connecting flight), you can! If you intend to stay in the US , you need a visa!

You can visit the US without a Visa, but there are restrictions on how long you are allowed to stay. Check with US immigration

See the State Department Visa Bulletin for April 2006\nhttp://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2847.html\n\nIf you are under 21 the wait time approximately 4 years, if you are over 21 the wait is approximately 10 years.\n\nThis is because congress only approves a limited amount of visas for each category and over the years a huge backlog was created. See above bulletin for explanation.\n\nRecently, a V visa was create for people that waited 5-6 years and still didn't get their permanent resident visa.

What country is your school in? \n\nYou would need to show proof that the school deferred your entry. By all means apply again. You must also show proof that you have adequate cash on hand (in the bank) to support yourself during your schooling.

Im afraid that for INS nothing is considered to be important when it comes to Visa abuse. Most likely your Visa is not yet cancelled but on leaving the USA when you have to present your I94 or I95 it will be obvious that you failed to leave the US when should have done at the latest. Most cases its is 6 months. You should have contacted the local INS office in the state where u stayed before your permit has expired and requested extension based on the important issue that you had. Most likely they will cancell your Visa on leaving the states and you may also face some other penalties.You may find professional and more satisfying answers on your question at the following INS links... Good luck.

The instructions for the form do allow for some leeway in the "how long do you plan to stay" question.  Still, you should call the office at your school that produced your I-20 form to make sure that they didn't make an error.  As you read, the I-20 specifically asks about the "normal" term of study.  If your school feels that 36 months is normal, put that on your DS 156.  But if you call them and they say that they made an error (which seems unlikely), then you should put whatever they tell you is the correct term of study.

It will be up to the inspector...there is NO 10 day rule, the visa is valid from day X to day X, no exceptions! The inspector can make a field decision but it will be based on courtesy nothing more. If I catch you 1 day outside your visa window you will be sitting in camp! Why, because too many non-immigrants violate the law!

Its better to consult US visa issuing authority on the  subject. But apparently it seems that both visas cant be there same time.\n As in VISIT application form there is a check-box asking 'wud you work over there'.\nHow that question be replied in 'NO', where there is H1 on the passport.\nAnd how that can be 'Yes', when you are applying for VISIT Visa.

Why do u need to cancel? U can apply to any number of universities simultaneously.U have the choice then to select the best I-20 when going to a visa.Good luck.

You can't.  Entry to the US under the Visa Waiver Program precludes your applying for an extension of stay or change of status.
454456
yes this can be done , however, beware that changes of status from B1/B2 to H1b are generally highly scrutinized by USCIS. You need to somehow prove that you didn't come to the US with the intention to change status... The fact that you just applied for an extension makes it even more suspicious. I'd consult with an immigration lawyer before I do anything if I were you.

interesting... how can your visa be cancelled while you are still in the US ? What did you do ? this is quite unusual...are you sure you didn't overstay?\n\nI'm assuming you are talking about a tourist visa... the purpose of the visa is for you to come as a tourist ! you must go back once your status expire...\n\nif you want to live and work legally you must explore legal avenues... if you stay you'll become an illegal alien ...\n\nIf you have no career aspirations and want to be a janitor, constructor etc... then you'll have no problem living in the US as an illegal but I can't imagine anybody wanting to be a janitor all his life... as a professional you'll never be able to get a job if you are an illegal alien

Yes you can but You must have a valid visa to return to the US. If your H1B status is approved by USCIS but your visa in your passport is expired, you must go to the embassy and get a new visa before returning to the US. For H1B cases this is only a procedure, if you have a USCIS approval you won't have any problems getting the visa.\n\nAlso, you can travel to Canada and Mexico and return on your expired visa if your USCIS status is valid. You can also get your visa from any consulate in Canada or Mexico
