  • next visit time after a visitor visa extension

    Hi,
    Given that one can only stay for 6 months (which can be extended to another 6 months) on a visitor visa, when is the next time one can visit again after a 6-month extension ?
    Example: My mother is coming to US on 8/1/05. I will try to extend her visa by another 6 months to 7/31/06. When is the next time she can visit US after going back to India by 7/31/06 ?
    thanx in advance

    She can visit again at any time, but if the immigration officer at the port of entry feels that she is trying to spend most of her time in US, she may be denied entry altogether.

      And then reentering usa after 7 -8 month stay in India

        Longer the better.
