Hello. I just now joined the forum. I have a question.
So my situation is that I am in USA with my parents ( who reside here) and I am a Canadian citizen. I know i can stay for 6 months, as I have done in past. However this time due to virus and flight suspended to Canada and issue with Canada /US borders, safety. etc. I do not want to take the risk and fly back to Canada. Now my 6month expires according to I94 is on April 20, 2020.
and I want to stay longer, maybe till June, Hopefully by then the virus will die down according to health officials. I know i have to fill out I539 form. Now the time is short. But I am hoping this is a emergency situation. and I hope they will listen to my request. Now if they deny my request, and I get a reply on or after April 20, then what happens. Do i have to leave USA asap? or i have a 30 days window period to say here in USA. I just worry about the denial. Since I have a short window ( April 20th).
Anyways any advise about this issue would be great.
thank you
