Can I file my parents I-539 B2 visa extension along with I-912 feee waiver form?

[Aaradhana]

Hi Team,

My parents B2 Visitor visa I-94 date is on 07-Jun. Given the lockdown situations, their next available flight is on July-04. Meanwhile, I have some pay cuts in my H1 employment. Can I use I-912 fee waiver form with this situation explained? I would like to know if there are any restrictions that H1B holders cannot use I-912 fee waiver form. Please advise.

No. According to the I-912 page, under Listing of Forms Eligible for Fee Waiver, I-539 is eligible for fee waiver "only if you are applying for any benefit request specified by section 245(l)(7) of the INA or applying for E-2 CNMI investor nonimmigrant status under 8 CFR 214.2(e)(23)". I don't think a B2 extension falls under those.
