USCIS Reminds Applicants to Submit Required Evidence with Form I-539

Share this:

USCIS reminds applicants to include all required evidence when they
submit Form I-539, the Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status.
This required initial evidence requesting extensions of stay is
included in the instructions of the form and is required for all
applications regardless of whether they were e-filed or mailed to USCIS.
Any errors or information not included when filing this form, USCIS
comments, may lead to application being delayed or denied.

Applicants are additionally reminded to upload all required evidence at
the time they file their application in USCIS ELIS. People with B-2
visitor visas should remember to submit required evidence with their
application. There are no appeal rights for B-2 nonimmigrants who are
denied extensions of stay.
