when entering on a B2 visa, my husband was given up to 6 months, but a maximum of 6 months total for the year, so for example, he could not enter for 4 months, leave for 2 then come back for another 4 in the same year.

OI 214.2 (B)

(B) http://' target="_blank">Visitors.

If found admissible, a B-2 shall be admitted for 6 months. The district director may delegate individual review of the minimum admission period no lower than a supervisory inspector. Referral of individual cases to the supervisor may occur when it is evident that the alien is admissible, but does not have sufficient resources available to maintain a 6 months visit. The Service does not require that an applicant for admission have with him or her funds to maintain a 6-month stay, but the applicant mus t demonstrate that he/she has access to sufficient resources. A B-1 shall be admitted for a period of time which is fair and reasonable for completion of the purpose of the trip. Any decision to reduce a B-1's admission from the time requested shall be authorized by a supervisor. (TM 185)

i read further and just want to make the clarification that of course it is up to the Border Agent how much time they will allow. it won't be any longer than 6 months, again from what I can tell.

Hmmm...Weird. I would think that the 5 year visa will let her stay in the US for that 5 years without having to stay for just 90 days. The multiple entry means that if she leave the US, and re-enter she would have the privilege to do so if she wanted.

I have a multiple entry visa too from another country. It doesn't specify an expiration date, and it mentioned permanent stay on it. It means that I can live in that country if I wanted without even coming back to the US.

I would ask NVC or someone who experienced that same situation for the solution.

just because you have a visa that is valid for 5 years does not mean you are allowed to stay for 5 years. That's like saying a Canadian can come here indefinately even if its "only a 2 year visit". that is not how it works, and we are not talking about a "permanent stay" visa - this is most likely a B2 we are talking about.

I am also disputing the 90 days. I believe that is just a thought carried over from the VWP program.

You are probably right about this and why I was under the impression it was 90 days.
