Can I visit immigration early to extend my non-immigrant B visa stamp before applying for a Bangladeshi work visa?

ORIGINAL POSTER
I submitted my visa (non-Imm b) extension application last month. I received a stamp until Thursday, may 26, at which time I will go to immigration to get a stamp for another 2 months.

I need to apply for a Bangladeshi visa for a work trip that departs next Friday. visa processing time is at least 5 days and the embassy is closed fridays. So ideally I would submit my passport for the Bangladeshi visa no later than this Wednesday. Could I go to immigration tomorrow - 2 days early - to get the two-month stamp?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on whether they can visit immigration two days early to get a two-month extension stamp on their non-immigrant B visa, as they need to apply for a Bangladeshi work visa that requires passport submission before their current visa expires.

can you go to get the new 2-month stamp AND then apply for the work visa on the same day?

yeah that’s probably what I’ll do

As soon as you get (hopefully) the extension stamp, you need to buy a re-entry permit to keep that extension alive if you are going to Bangladesh.

Yes, you can always ask, but have plan B ready if the paperworks are not finalized and you have to come back on set date 26 May.
