My friend has a B-1 visa that will expire on Dec 13, 2012. My understanding is that she can enter America before that day, like on Dec 11. The immigration officer at the airport will decide how long she can stay for her visit. Am I right? Please confirm my understanding.
 
Yes. She need only arrive at a port of entry before the visa expires. The time she will be given in the US is a different issue, and she will likely get 6 months.
