We wish to seek an extension of three months to enable our son to complete his school term here. Is there a provision for such extension, and if so, what is the procedure? PDF Print E-mail

Q: My husband's H1 B Visa expires in March of 2004. We wish to seek an extension of three months to enable our son to complete his school term here. Is there a provision for such extension, and if so, what is the procedure? 

A: Your family members do not need to renew their VISAS if all the members of your family have H1B/H4 status lasting beyond March 2003. A new VISA is only necessary if you plan on traveling outside of the U.S. while you are on a nonimmigrant U.S. status.
On the other hand, your husband can petition for the extension of his H1B status for any duration of time up to 3 years, and generally for a maximum of 6 years. Vacation time and personal time of can be recouped even beyond 6 years.
