Cancelled.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

A common example of this is a person with a 10-year tourist visa who is allowed by the INS at the Port of Entry (POE) to stay in the U.S. for 6 months. This six-month period is indicated on the I-94 card issued to the tourist at the POE. Suppose our traveler remains in the U.S. beyond the allowed six months and does not file an extension with the INS. Suppose also that the period of overstay is less than 180 days and that the person returns home without incident. (Periods of overstay in excess of 180 days give rise to even more significant problems that are not the subject of this article.) In such a situation, it is often assumed that one can continue to use the multiple-entry tourist visa until it expires. This is not the case. Under section 222(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, the visa of a person who overstays becomes void after the conclusion of the period of authorized stay indicated on the I-94. This cancellation occurs without the individual's knowledge. One cannot reenter the U.S. except with a new visa applied for at the consulate in the home country or if one qualifies for a visa exemption requirement to apply for the visa in another country based on "extraordinary circumstances."

Staying Beyond Your Authorized Stay in the U.S. and Being Out of Status

It is important that you depart the U.S. on or before the last day you are authorized to be in the U.S. on any given trip, based on the specified end date on your Arrival-Departure Record, Form I-94. Failure to depart the U.S. will cause you to be out-of-status.

Staying beyond the period of time authorized by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and being out-of-status in the United States is a violation of U.S. immigration laws, and may cause you to be ineligible for a visa in the future for return travels to the U.S. Select Classes of Aliens Ineligible to Receive Visas to learn more.

Staying unlawfully in the United States beyond the date Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials have authorized--even by one day--results in your visa being automatically voided, in accordance with INA 222(g). Under this provision of immigration law, if you overstay on your nonimmigrant authorized stay in the U.S., your visa will be automatically voided. In this situation, you are required to reapply for a new nonimmigrant visa, generally in your country of nationality.
