My situation is slightly complex so please bear with me.
I came to the US way back in 2000 on an L1 visa. My visa dates were from
9th June 2000 till 9th June 2001. I left the country only on 22nd June 2001.
Now I am not sure if the I-94 issued when I entered on L-1 had a later date. But I had no problems exiting the US, had no problems getting a subsequent F-1 visa stamped (via drop-box), had no problems re-entering the US on that F-1 visa and had no problems in getting that F1 status changed to an H1B approval.
Now I need to go for a visa stamping interview in Canada. I am wondering how risky that 'potential overstay' could be (note that I am still trying to get hold of that darned I-94 copy but have not found it yet so maybe there was no overstay).
My feeling is, if there had been a potential overstay, it would have already been caught. hence I can rest at ease.
How correct am I in thinking so?
Do you think in a case like this I am better off getting the visa stamped in India?
