What if the American visa expires?

1. Generally speaking, there are two situations: one is that the visa expires before going to the United States after the application is successful, and the other is that the return time stipulated in the visa is missed in the United States. These two situations are handled in different ways. 2. Don't go to the United States when it expires: This method is the same as applying for a tourist visa for the first time. No special requirements. As long as the materials are fully prepared, you can get an American visa in this way. The tourist visa in America has expired. Return to China immediately: If you are in the United States, it is no problem to return to China after your visa expires. It should be noted that when your American visa expires, you can transit through some countries, but once your visa expires, these countries may refuse you entry or transit, so if you book a flight after your visa expires, you should also pay attention to this problem so as not to delay your trip. 4. Go through the extension formalities: the stay time of the tourist visa to the United States is about to expire, but if you want to postpone your departure for a while, you can apply to the US Immigration Service for an extension. It should be noted that it is uncertain whether the application is approved, and the application should be submitted before the tourist visa expires. The penalty for illegal residence after the visa expires is negligible. The most serious thing is that illegal residence will leave a record on your file, making it extremely difficult for you to re-enter the country and even apply for a visa from other countries. Therefore, when traveling, we must pay attention to planning the time and try not to apply for an extension.
