If they don't want people staying 86 days then they should make the limit 85 days and not bother anyone that stays 84. If they don't want people carrying 9950 dollars they should change the limit to 9949. What they really prefer is rules that are so arcane and confusing that it's impossible for anyone to follow them, so when there is clarity and people read and follow the rules it makes them unhappy because it's frustrating their plans to turn everyone into a felon.
That's why I asked the officer if I am doing something wrong and if I should cut back on visiting. I didn't get a clear answer on it, he just suggested for me to do the B1/B2 so i am doing that. I hope it works out. I guess it was just a mistake to stay for 3 months, but had I known, Iwouldn't have stayed so long. I just follow the law and took it once close to the limit but never went above. Anyway I really hope this turns out well. We are already having a very hard time being apart and if now one of us won't be able to visit anymore it's gonna make things more sad than they already are. Fingers crossed
