                    [Summary] => Dear Atty. Gurfinkel:


I have a 10-year multiple B-1/B-2 visa.  I entered the U.S., and was given six months by the INS Officer at the airport, but overstayed by only a few years.


I would like to take a brief trip to the Philippines, in order to visit my family, but I need to get back right away for my job.   I was told that if I "back date" or "back stamp" the immigration entry date to the Philippines on my passport, to cover up that I overstayed, that I won’t have any problems.  After all, I do have a 10-year visa.
