L2 Visa Extension

[sayed.ariff]

Hi,

Our L1 & L2 Visa's were expired on Aug 31st, 2019, while we apply for a visa extension before our expiry date our lawyer has filed an L1 extension in premium and it got approved on Sep 10th, 2019 and filing L2 extension was missed.

After speaking with Lawyer, considering it as an honest mistake they filed L2 extension on Sep 24th, 2019 in texas center and biometrics completed on OCT 24th 2019.

As of today, the status of the extension is "Case was updated to show fingerprints were taken" and still waiting for a decision from USCIS.

Since we are close to 180 days of Visa expiry, Can L2 visa holders stay up to 240 days or do we have to fly back by before 180 days?

Please suggest.

Thanks,
Syed Ariff

Your L2 was expired Aug 31st 2019, I guess same was I94 date as well.

In that case they were out of status from Sep 1st 2019 till Sep 24th 2019 - It can cause a problem.

Dear All

I had a question regarding L2 Visa and EAD Extension for my wife. Her L2 Visa along with mine is getting expired on 03-Aug-2020. The visa extension process will be taken care of by my employer. However, her L2 EAD is valid only until 26-Apr-2020. Should i go for L2 EAD Extension to get it extended at least till the visa expiry date of 03-Aug-2020, and then go for another extension after the visa is extended beyond August 2020?

Any help in this regard will be very help as we are very confused right now.
