Here’s a general outline of the process: ### 1. **Eligibility Check** - Ensure you meet the eligibility requirements for the B-1/B-2 visa. This typically includes demonstrating that you intend to return to your home country after your visit and that you have sufficient funds for your stay. ### 2. **File Form I-539** - You need to file Form I-539, Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status. This form can be filed online or by mail. - Include the required documentation, such as: - A copy of your current H-1B approval notice. - Evidence of your intent to return to your home country (e.g., ties to your home country, travel itinerary). - Financial documents to show you can support yourself during your stay. ### 3. **Pay the Filing Fee** - There is a fee associated with filing Form I-539. Check the USCIS website for the current fee amount. ### 4. **Submit Your Application** - Send your completed application and supporting documents to the appropriate USCIS address. If filing online, follow the instructions provided on the USCIS website. ### 5. **Await Decision** - After submission, you will receive a receipt notice from USCIS. Processing times can vary, so check the USCIS website for current processing times. ### 6. **Maintain Status** - While your application is pending, you must maintain your H-1B status. If your H-1B status expires before a decision is made, you may be considered out of status. ### 7. **Travel Considerations** - If you leave the U.S. while your application is pending, it may be considered abandoned. It’s generally advisable to avoid international travel during this process. ### 8. **Consult an Immigration Attorney** - Given the complexities of immigration law, it may be beneficial to consult with an immigration attorney to ensure that you are following the correct procedures and to address any specific concerns related to your situation. ### Important Notes - The B-1/B-2 visa is typically for temporary visits, and you should not intend to work while on this visa. - If you are currently in the U.S. on an H-1B visa, ensure that you comply with all regulations and maintain your status throughout the process. For the most accurate and personalized advice, consider consulting with an immigration attorney or checking the official USCIS website. Quote

Because most of them are filing for B2 literally 5 days before their grace period ends. Quote
