VWP Question

[melbell54 0]

If my fiance comes to visit but then decides to extend his visit, is this likely to be a problem? I realize the generic answer is "as long as he doesn't over stay the date they give him," but my question is, is it a risk that they will stamp him for under 90 days if his original ticket says he will only be here for 10? I have heard that depending on the reasons you give for your visit, they don't necessarily stamp you for the full 90 days. How common of an occurance is this?

Thanks!

i've never had my passport 'stamped' for any length of time.

My understanding is that as long as you leave before the 90days it doesn't matter, when you leave the piece of green card is removed out of your passport to process through that you've gone back to UK.

How often has he come to visit recently? I got less than the 90 days once, when it was my 5th visit in ten months (all visits of a week or less). They gave me two days more than my return ticket, in case of flight delays.

a VWP visit AFAIK is not extendable like a B1/2 visit might be able to

Perhaps I should clarify, I think what I said is confusing. Suppose he plans to come for 2 weeks but it turns out he can stay for a month. Is there any problem with this? I am pretty sure that it typically would not be, but how often do they let you in on the VWP and not allow you to stay the whole 90 days, as in the case Penguin mentioned?
