What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TX
Hi there! I entered the states as a tourist then filed an application to extend the 6 months I got on my I-94 with another 6 months but during the time my application was in pending status I filed another application for h-3 and during the time I was pending for the h-3 I received a positive answer for the i-94 extension but a negative answer for the h-3 which in the denial letter they told me I have 30 days to leave the states but in those 30 days I filed an application for another type of working visa, and received a request for more evidence, send them but eventually got denied with no option to appeal but then I filed a motion to reconsider which eventually go denied also, it's been almost two years since I entered the states.. A lawyer I consulted with told me that as long as I'm in pending status (but not for appealing for something I received with no option to appeal) I can stay in the states (but not work).
My question is if my lawyer is right and my status is legal to stay (which means that next time I will enter the states they won’t tell me that I broke the law and therefore cannot enter the states).
Can I theoretically stay in the states years over years and apply for a different visa every time? It takes them few months to decide for each application so basically there are enough Visas to stay for several years…
