It is therefore in fact possible to apply for a new 90-day admission without traveling outside North America. All you have to do is ask. The officer might grant the request or not. In this case, I would suspect it unlikely unless the traveler has a credible plan to leave very shortly after the end of the first 90-day period. | |
| Jul 25 at 6:54 | comment | added | phoog | 'you must travel further than Canada, Mexico, or the "Adjacent Islands"': another possibility is to be in one of those places when the 90-day period elapses and then apply for admission. This is not likely to be successful for a visa run to obtain more than 90 days in the US, because the immigration officer is likely to be skeptical of that, but it is useful to know for people who are legitimately traveling around North America including multiple periods inside the US, for example to catch a return flight or something like that. | |
