Your length of stay needs to reflect the timeline stated on your I-20.

When presenting to the US Visa officers, be mindful that one criterion they’re looking for is your intent to leave the US after completing your studies. You are likely to raise concerns with your current approach, so be sure to get ahead of the issue – proactively let them know you plan to return to your country and join your family business.
