Hello,
I entered the States on April 1st 2015 on a B1 visa for Voluntary Service. My visa expired on September 30th, 2015, however I filed the I-539 application to extend non-immigrant status to be able to stay two months longer in the country to help out the organisation I was volunteering for as they really needed me. They are still processing my extension application that USCIS received on September 15th. It still says on their website that the last completed processed I-539 application is from December 2014. That means that I won't get an answer about my application whether it was denied or approved until about next year around this time. My boyfriend and me have decided to get a K1 visa for me but I am now wondering whether they will even approve that with that outstanding visa extension application.
Thanks a lot for your help!
