What is the name of your state? NC
Dear forum users,
My wife is on her last J1 academic training extension (expires 15th Aug). Her J1 carries the home residency requirement (HRR). She is pregnant and the expected delivery date is around Aug 10th. She does have a 30 day grace period (i.e until Sept 15th) to leave the country.
Is it possible for us to legally request USCIS to grant some addition time (an extension) for her to stay on after Sept 15? Even a short extension for a month or two will do as the concern is to have my wife fully recover after birth (takes about 6 weeks) and for the baby to have it`s initial vaccination and pediatric care here until it`s a couple of months old.
Is there any special medical provision for requesting such an extension of stay? Based upon the long duration of travel time (flight+bus with no delays = 36 hours) and the lack of decent medical infrastructure in our home country our doctor, here can write us a note recommending such a stay.
We would appreciate any suggestions.
Best Regards
