if you are brazilian and have a student visa for U.S., go back to brazil for vacation and come back, can you?
my boyfriend has a student visa and goes to a university and takes english classes at night. he said the visa lasts four years. we are planning on going to brazil together next summer and he keeps on telling me "that there might be a chance of him not being able to enter back into the u.s." now is that true? can that really happen? if so, why? i mean, if he has his 4 year student visa he should be able to get back in right? or are you not allowed to travel outside of the u.s. if you have a student visa? he's only been here for 6 months.. so it isn't expiring for another 3 and a half years help please!! i'd appreciate it a lot :)
