Bit of a pickle here and would appreciate any advice. As I posted about in another thread, I'm currently waiting on my LTVP (submitted June 15th) based on my EPEC (approved June 4th). The problem is that my latest chop or extension to my tourist pass is up on July 22nd and my passport is full of entry stamps.
I have an entry stamp for April 5th for which I extended on May 4th until June 4th at ICA. I did a visa run to JB on May 25th for which I applied online for a 90-day extension. ICA would only give me 30 days on that (valid until July 22nd) because my wife was not with me when I went down there for the chop. I should have said, wait right there while I get my wife down from the side of her mother's hospital bed. If you want to see my wife mad, just get between her and her mother.
At the end of that visit, the ICA staffer said that this was my last extension and that if I wanted another one to bring my wife down. I figured that I had nothing to worry about since my LTVP was in process at that moment.
I've called and emailed ICA about my LTVP and they said that there was nothing I could do nor could they tell me what was the holdup. They suggested that I could go down to their offices to see what was going on.
So, my wife is suggesting a visa run this coming Monday but I am worried that the officer will be pretty suspicious with all of these stamps. Should we head down to ICA instead? Thanks!
Otherwise, things are going pretty well. Mother-in-law has survived her third hospital visit in less than a year. Picked up some work from a Canadian Web outfit to supplement the American jobbie.
