I thought.... (famous last words) that if I did a bounce a few days before my one year non-Imm b multi expired (on the 19th of Nov) I would ‘stretch’ another 90 days out of it.. I’ve had to bounce today as the stamp says but the immigration officer had a good ‘doodle’ on it and appears to have scuppered my futile optimism, thoughts?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking clarity about extending their Non-Immigrant B visa stay by doing a border run shortly before its expiration. Despite a previous attempt to extend their stay through bouncing, the immigration stamp suggests otherwise. Various community members clarify that the year-long duration of the visa is fixed, but there's a possibility for an extension if another border run is done before the actual expiry date of November 19.
