It's actually just a stamp that says the person can work for 90 days after entry. After 90 days, it's no longer valid. As far as I know JFK is the only airport using this stamp.

The stamp is good only for as long as the I-94 is... In the case of a K-1 entry that is 90 days... Not sure what visa the alledged 180 day recipient arrived on...

YMMV

My husband got the 90 day stamp from JFK Dec 20th and didn't have to ask for it. (he doesn't even speak english :blush: )

I think they give it pretty routine there, but I'm not sure about any other POE

يَايُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءامَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَوةِ اِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّبِرِينَ

I hear it is kind of hit or miss and only at JFK.I figure, if he gets it great, if he doesn't get it that's okay too. Then we wait, hehe nothing new.....I'll just call it a blessing that he has more time to adjust to a new area!
