Parents consecutive trips in 1 year

[Anish_Sen]

My parents are going back to India in April'10 just before completion of their 6 months. But they want to come back again after 3 weeks. They have got their visa for 1 year. So they can stay another 4 months on their 2nd trip from May'10 to Aug'10.

Is it going to be a problem during their next visa stamping or immigration at airport as they will end up staying 10 months in US out of their 1 year approved visa ?

Please advise.

My friends mom had a issues, She was here 6 months and came back after 6 months . POE officer took her for inspection and called my friend and asked lot of question , gave the warning saying 'Visiting visa is for just visting not to stay in US'....

It's all depends on the officer & POE

I had that issue as well ..my parents returned to US after 3 months and got a lot of questions. I don't think POE will deport your parents.

Thx

It can get difficult at the POE. My parents in laws returned in 4.5 months and got questioned a lot. They will not deport them but they could give them at 15 day I-94 in which case the trip will cost you/them a bomb.
