My mother-in-law wants to come visit us this summer in the US, but we're unsure when here tourist visa expired. It was issued to her 2/5/02 and it says it expires 2/10/12. She got the visa in Mexico. Does her visa expire on October 2, 2012, or did it already expire on February 10, 2012? We have called the visa information and have been told both ways. Does anyone know for sure how they list the dates?

Thanks!

Her visa was issued in February 2010 and it expired in February 2012.

It was issued in Feb 2002 and expired February 2012

Good rule of thumb: if it's the US that issued the document, it'll always be MM/DD/YYYY, never DD/MM/YYYY.

Yeah they are valid for 10 years but that does not mean you can actually stay 10 years in a row in the US.
