Most offices let you apply for an extension when you have 30 days or less left on your current 90 day Non-O stamp.

When does your current stamp expire?

Whether they do an in home visit or not, when you apply for a year extension based on marriage they give you the 30 day under consideration stamp and then you go back on that date to get the year extension inked in.

BUT your current stamp doesn't expire until MAY and you can apply right up until the last day on that stamp.

Strange really

The earliest any immigration office will let you apply for a new extension is 45 days before your current stamp expires so that'd be April 13th ..

then you can apply for a year extension any time after April 28

That's 30 days before your current stamp expires.

Dunno why he'd say come back April 2 :/
