Visitor Visa Extension question

[chaksbaks]

Hello all

I need experts help in knowing about extension for visitor visa for my mother. She came here in December 2016 and I asked for extension for 4 more months recently. I am not sure when will I get answer but I have heard that sometime it does not come until almost you have passed even your extension time.

The big question I have is if I have asked for 4 months extension but what if I want her to stay for 1 or 2 more months then do I have to re-apply again? Isn't it like even if I ask for 4 months it will automatically extended for further 6 more months?

Thanks in advance!

The extension will have an expiry date, if she wants to go beyond this date she will have to reapply.
