I am feeling lazy to find the direct link to USCIS, however Wikipedia should suffice. Note also that voluntary departure is not automatic, it must be explicitly stated. You're treading dangerous ground. | |

@SZSZ you have 180 days to leave voluntarily without accruing That is not correct.

| May 6, 2018 at 16:18 | comment | added | SZSZ | thank you. Though, I believe, after the immigration ruling is delivered, you have 180 days to leave voluntarily without accruing. | |
