The date you want to use as the start of the stay-counting period.

Authorized-stay days

The editable day count from your own document, notice, or planning assumption.

Count entry date as day one

A counting assumption you can toggle because counting rules can vary by context.

Understanding your results

The estimated last day is only the result of your inputs and counting choice. It does not determine lawful presence, extension eligibility, visa validity, or any official I-94 deadline.

Example scenarios

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use an earlier reminder threshold for travel booking, filings, or professional review.
  • Save the counting assumption used so the planning result can be reviewed later.
