Visitor visa overstay

Recommended Posts

My parents visited us second time during their 10-year B2 visa.  I just realized that my parents I-94 expired yesterday (on 07/06/2018), and they left the US on 07/07/2018. 

Is this considered an overstay? 

I'm planning to apply for another B2 visa sometime in December 2018, as their current 10 year visa is expiring on November 10, 2018.

Thanks.

I know of a case, during a renewal they were grilled during the interview (drop box was not allowed) on a 4 day accidental overstay similar to yours and eventually denied. 

Just the current political  environment and what not..keep your fingers crossed..

Any overstay automatically invalidates the visa. So, a person trying to enter with the same visa after an overstay WILL get denied entry. This has been the law from way before Trump. It for sure is 100% enforced under Trump.

You will not be applying for their B2; your parents would be. 

If they manage to obtain a new visa in December, it'll be obvious the one-day overstay was immaterial.
