Thanks for answering and,

 

 

Good Luck

Thank you very much friend for the help suggestion.

I’ll have an update tomorrow after my call to the immigration office for future seekers and knowledge

black Beard,

 

did you call The Bar Assocation and get the name of a lawyer for your friend ?

No I haven’t. He has some language barriers, and that’s why I’m helping him.

I called the homeland security located on Ft. Lauderdale. They told me that he’ll be alright if he has his passport and I-20 up to date and trip will be less than 30 days. However, I really don’t trust it by the way the person was talking (seemed kinda guessing and not 100% sure). After that I called another cruise line company and they gave me a number to the immigration office which has the answers to this situation (according to him). I’ll call that number the first thing in the morning tomorrow, and hopefully I’ll have an answer to my call and to my questions

I would ask an immigration lawyer; this is too big an issue to go by what you find on the Internet.

Yeah I agree I wouldn’t take internet talk as an assurance. If I couldn’t find an absuloye and trusted answer here, then I’ll definitly take calling a ln immigration lawyer into consideration.

Just in case I didn’t find an answer. Would you mind if you give where to find those lawyers?

Is this a question best answered by contacting Customs and Border Control? Google search may be your best bet.

I tried to contact them, but either I called the wrong number or it won’t let me get on the line to talk to one of them.

I searched a lot about it. Some says it’s alright as long as it’s less then a month and some days that you’ll go through customes.

That’s why I said let me post something here and might someone has been or know of another person who’s faced such a situation

Hello everyone,

I’m planning to take a cruise trip in December to Bahamas, Jamaica, Great Cayman, Mexico departing from Florida with my wife and another couple. However, one of the member is here under F-1 visa. The visa has been expired and nowhere able to renew it before December, but he has his passport and I-20 up to date and valid for more than a year. So the question is is he still able to come to the trip and be able to re-enter the states again?

P.S. the person has a Saudi Arabian nationality if there’s any different makes from nationality to another.

And, by the way, I tried to contact the Holland American Line staff but they have no idea

Please any help would be appreciated
