Hi,

My non-b visa has expired on 5 Feb. I did a border bounce in January which gave me other 90 days, till the 13th of April.

I am an Italian citizen and i have received the letter from the embassy to show to the immigration office but my lawyer told me if i ask for this extension i will lose my non b visa and i will get a tourist visa.

Is it true? Any advice would be very appreciated 🙏🏼
Answer summary
An Italian citizen's Non-B visa expired on February 5, but they received a border bounce allowing an additional 90 days. They are seeking advice on whether requesting an extension with the embassy's letter will result in losing their Non-B visa and being switched to a tourist visa.

If you visa is expired, it is expired. Immigration is not going to change that. If you visit with this letter the immigration office you will get a stamp with application is under consideration and up to no more than 30 days,.
