Visa Renewal for 67 old mother who Overstayed her first trip

[ASHTON KUTCHER]

Hello all,

Anyone who has knowledge in the following can reply back to me.

Mother 10 years Multiple visa will expire in May 5th of this year, questions:

1. What is the last date she can travel with this Visa?

2. She overstayed her trip in 1998 by 2 yrs and came back 3 times after that trip without any issues at POE and did not O/S her time in 2006 twice and in 2007 , what complication would she have at the Trinidad (Caribbean) Embassy for renewal visa ?

3. Would they ask about the first trip and why she O/S ? not sure since she made 3 trips after and had NO issue at POE.

4. Should I go with her for the visa renewal, since I could explain better if this questions comes up ? I have her regular Dr. letter and medical record showing that she was I'll and was seeing him, but not from the hospital.

The reason she O/S in 1998 is due to emergency surgery 15 days before her return date so she was ill and couldn't go back until she feel well which she did and went back on in 2001.

Your help is appreciated

Ashton

Overstaying for 2 years makes your mother subject to a 10 year bar from re-entering the US. Every visit after that was also an unlawful presence since she was subject to the bar. So she has accrued more than a lifetime worth of bars now. That this was not discovered at the POE is another story. There is a good chance that the consulate will discover this though. USCIS is fairly disorganized and they often don't catch these things, but consular officers tend to be more careful. You can't really prepare for the interview much. Not sure what advise to give for you. Every future entry to the US will be a gamble.
