There's a visa EXPIRY date stamped on your visa. You have to be in the US before that expiry date.

If you don't leave and the visa expires, chances are you will have to re-file everything all over again. Pay new fees, re-do the medical exam etc..

Unless the US Embassy grants you an extension which would require a very valid reason on your part.

please to review your passport, find the new visa stamp inside, and tell us the dates printed there? TIA !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

I totally agree with your post. Getting an extension before your visa expires would be very hard and getting the extension after it expires won't happen. If you have unfinished business to take care of here just fly to the nearest POE, probably Guam, have your passport stamped and then come back and finish your business. I wouldn't let it expire, as we all know there are going to be changes happening when it comes to immigration, and there is no guarantee that you will be able to do the same process or be approved the second time around. After working so hard for this don't let it slip through your fingers.
