B2 10 year visa question# Reunion - 探亲与陪读

1 楼
My mom got 10Y B2 visa.
Her first stay: from May 2015 to Aug 2015 (I-94 stamped Nov 2015),
then she went back to China for two weeks, and came to US again
in middle Aug, the new I-94 stamp is Feb 2016 (entered from JFK).
Question: can she really stay until Feb 2016? I've heard that
B2 visa holder shouldn't stay more than 180 days a year.
Or if her next trip plan is around May 2017, maybe she can stay
in US more than 180 days this time as long as leaving before Feb 2016?
I am really confused by the fact that if US doesn't allow her
to stay more than 180 days a year, why the second stamp is Feb 2016,
not Nov 2015.
thanks very much!
