IRS does not care about legal status, a substantive presence issues. and a USC or Resident you are taxed on your world wide income.

My general comment about extensions is no harm as long as you have no plans to come back anytime soon, visitor visas are for visiting.

“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.”

Your aunt has a better chance of coming back to the US when she leaves than overstaying and trying to explain that.

Did your aunt come for the purpose of visiting or with the intent to stay?

The only issue is if she can attempt to reenter the US at a future point using her current visa if still current.

My understanding is that unlike a straight overstay a visa is not voided on extension refusal if you leave within the allotted time.

However having stayed here so long you can expect some serious question if you wish to come back again. The longer you leave any sort of future trip the better.

Nothing a Lawyer can do about the situation.

A visa extension is not easy to get approved, and is for use in medical, etc emergencies.

Did your friend who applied for B2 extension in April get approved? Also, your cousin who you said back in July applied for an extension to visit her ailing relatives in Chicago, did she get extension approved or have issues with TSA?

Generally speaking, a visitor staying the full 180 days, and spends another 2 months waiting for an extension, wouldn't need another month to wrap things up. Just sayin..

She does not need to seem an immigration lawyer because she is not immigrating, she is only visiting. The only thing that she needs to do is exit the country within the time given in the letter of denial.

Please refer to my prior post. She can not reenter the U.S. at a future point using the current visa because it was cancelled when the extension was denied.
