Visas are government-issued documents that provide an individual from a foreign country with permission enter the United States and to engage in certain activities. Visas come in two basic types: immigrant Visas and nonimmigrant Visas. Immigrant Visas are granted to qualified applicants who desire to remain in the United States permanently. The specific type of immigrant Visa, and the likelihood that it will be granted, depend on further status requirements. Nonimmigrant Visas are granted to those intending to return to their country of origin. These include diplomatic personnel, business persons, tourists, students, and temporary workers. If you or a loved one require an immigrant or nonimmigrant visa, it would be beneficial to contract an Immigration Lawyer or a Visa Lawyer, who can guide you through the Visa process, avoiding common visa pitfalls, and ensuring that you recieve the visa you need.
