I have a B2 visa till Feb 08. I have applied for an extension using I-539 which was denied.
The letter of decision states that "the decision resulting in the denial of Form I-539 leaves you without lawful immigration status and you are now present in the United States in violation of the law. You are required to depart the United States within 30 days from the date of this decision, or be subject to removal proceedings."
However, the original I-94 card that was returned still bore the original date in Feb 08.
There is an annotation behind the I-94: Denied EOS, CSC, 3688, 11/29/07 and a signature. I take it that EOS refers to extension of stay, and CSC 3688 some kind of reference no, 11/29/07 as the date my application was processed.
So what should I do now? Prepare to leave as per letter or follow the stamped date on the I-94?
