Hi, I didn't match this season. I wish to continue staying here so I can look for clinical research positions which will help me improve my chances of matching next year.

I need to apply for I-94 extension. how ever apart from the obvious reason I have no other.



My question is, can I apply on the basis of an observership? Will that be OK? any exp or advice will be appreciated.



Thanks.

^You can try that but of course there is no guarantee that they will grant your extension request. I got approved for an i94 extension, my reason was to take the Step 3. However, they still did not give me enough time so i could take the exam for which I am already scheduled for in May. I called USCIS and they said the maximum number of months a B1 visa holder could stay was only 6 months. I entered the US November, they only granted me a 3 month i94 and a they only gave me 1 more month extra to stay.

Hope this helps. Good luck to you.

Hi xthine,

I need a advice from you. I have filed I 539 to extend B2 in mid March 2008 and uscis receipt date is on April 7, 2008 and my B2 visa expires on May 11th 2008.

My question is, what do i do ? do i go to mexican border and reenter USA to get new visa or wait for their reply pass my expiry date ?

what do i become, if my visa expires while waiting for uscis decision ?

your input is highly appreciated.
