The procedure for getting an extension, as long as you have obeyed the laws, is painless, less than us$80 and is nearly a guarantee.

DON'T OVERSTAY!
100% Don't overstay...

I hope my post wasn't construed as an argument for it. Rather - I was hoping to get across that even in the best situation it is expensive and a headache. DON'T OVERSTAY.

I've never known anyone who's been denied an extension who went about things the legal way - so just do it that way and save yourself legal, financial and all other kinds of trouble
