Coming to the United States could be a life-changing experience. From fleeing possible prosecution to reuniting with someone you love, the United States could provide a fresh start. When you face challenges during the immigration process, especially when acquiring a visa for yourself or a family member, seek assistance from a qualified immigration attorney.
The U.S. immigration visa process is complicated, but a Fort Worth visa lawyer could explain it and help you through the application.
A U.S. visa is an official license the United States government gives to an individual who wants to live permanently or temporarily in the United States. Visas are for individuals seeking to remain in the United States and permanently apply for an immigration visa. Persons who want to stay in the United States for a temporary amount of time will apply for a non-immigration visa.
Non-immigration visas are typically for foreign citizens wishing to remain temporarily in the United States for business, travel, medical treatment, and educational studies, such as foreign exchange programs. The process of applying for a non-immigration visa starts with a person visiting their country’s U.S. consulate to file paperwork for either a B-2 tourist visa or a B-1 nonimmigrant visa.
A foreign national already in the United States can apply for an immigration visa through the U.S. Department of State (i.e., U.S. State Department). The person applying for the immigration visa must prove to the U.S. State Department that they, or a spouse or children in their home country, want to live and stay in the United States forever. This is often difficult for foreign nationals to show due to the variances and complexities in the legal system of the United States government.
A Fort Worth visa attorney could provide clear advice on applying for either a B-1 or B-2 visa to temporarily immigrate to the United States.
An immigration lawyer can help a foreign national in many ways. Some of the many benefits legal counsel can provide to persons seeking to obtain U.S. visas are:
