Question details
I have a tourist visa to the US which expires in 2009. However, back in 2004, i was able to obtain a F-1 visa for MBA studies. It expired in 2006 and my stay was extended through practical training. I have all necessary documents supporting that. My question is, will I still be able to use my tourist visa until the March 2009 expiration?
My assumption is that you are still on F-1 and in USA. If this is correct, you cannot use your B visa within USA.
While in USA, your stay and status is controlled exclusively by your I-94.
You can, however, try to reenter USA on B visa but after having stayed here for so long, a reentry is likely to be denied.
If, you are outside USA and have been out for a while (like a year or more), I think you can still use that B visa and try to enter USA.
Recently worked with Pavithra Madhanakumar in Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna for my parents B1/B2 extension of stay. The entire process was seamless. Pavithra was very responsive to our queries and kept us informed of our next steps throughout the way. Very happy to have associated with this firm. Every member in the team seemed invested in our case and provided valuable guidance. Would love to associate again in the future.
