L1-B expiring in december and having baby in october

All,

My L1-B petition and i-94 is expiring in the last week of December. That will complete my maximum stay on L1-B. I cant extend it any more. We are having a baby in the 3rd week of October. That will give us 8 to 9 weeks to make arrangements for the baby travel to India.

Is 8 weeks enough for
1. getting birth certificate
2. applying and receiving passport and
3. applying and receiving PIO card?

Is there any rule saying if the process cant be completed in that period then the parents stay can be extended?

Any information on this is really appreciated.

Thanks
 
However unfortunate it may sound, there is nothing in the law that would allow to stay beyond the maximum period permissible for L-1 (or for H-1, if you don't have a pending GC application).

Hence, your worry should be how to overcome the limitation stated above and not about whether you have enough time for performing post-delivery activities.
