In United States immigration terminology, a 10-day grace period is a brief window of time automatically granted by USCIS to certain non-immigrant workers—such as those on H-1B, L-1, O-1, P, and TN visas—allowing them to remain legally in the United States for up to 10 days before their employment start date begins and for up to 10 days after their authorized employment or project ends. This short buffer period gives departing workers a brief, legal window to pack their belongings, finalize travel logistics, or transition to a new employer without immediately accruing unlawful presence or falling out of status the exact moment employment terminates.
