If I applied for my parents B2 visa extension for 6 months but the application is still in initial review, how much time will they take to approve or reject?

I applied last month. How many days can they stay in the US after extension is applied and waiting for response?

Given the backload for legal permission to stay in this country your application for the B2 visa for your parents may take 3 months to approve or deny given the work load of the assigned immigration person who is reviewing the application. I suggest that you simply call the office where the application was filed and see if an estimate can be given to you for the approval or denial of what you have written about.
