What happens if your visa expires?
It is a criminal offence to overstay your visa without good reason. You will not be lawfully allowed to work, and if caught doing so, could face a prison sentence. If your period of overstay exceeds the 90 day limit, you will more than likely face an exclusion on re-entering the UK for at least one year.
Can I stay after my visa expires?
Once the expiration date of your permitted stay has passed, you have no actual immigration status. If you were working, based on having a visa that permitted U.S. work, you must now stop. On the other hand, you’re not expected to leave the United States. You are allowed to stay until the decision is made.
Can you still work if your visa expires?
Once you have fallen out of status—meaning that your authorization to stay in the United States on a visa or some other document has expired—you are expected to depart the United States immediately. You are not eligible for a work permit, or indeed for any other immigration benefit.
Can I leave on the day my visa expires?
If you’ve stayed longer than you’re allowed to under your visa or leave, this is called overstaying. You’ll have 30 days to leave the country from the date it expired.
What happens if you stay in a country after your visa expires?
The visa of any foreign national that overstays their period of stay is automatically voided. Immigration is very strict in its interpretation and application of this provision – overstaying by even a day will void your existing visa.
Can someone else use my green card?
You can petition to bring family members to the United States (often called “sponsoring” them) only if you are a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident (green card holder). Even then, you can bring in only those family members listed on the chart below.
Can I photocopy my green card?
Permanent residents are legally required to carry their green card with them if age 18 or older. The Immigration and Nationality Act (§264(e)) states that all permanent residents must have “at all times” official evidence of permanent resident status. A photocopy is not acceptable.
