thank you. i understand that it is a good thing to return during the given time. but bcz of the cost of air fare they are not hoping to visit us over and over. thats why im trying my best to keep them 4-6 months.

bcz when i get my citizenship im planning to apply immigrant petitions for them. So even if requesting for an extension can affect their chance of visiting the US again as long as they do not stay in the US illegally it wont affect their immigrant process later on right?

maintaining lawful presence on visits has NO effect on any future immigration. unlawful presence on the other hand could

YMMV
