Non-Immigrant Visas Attorney
What Is A Non-Immigrant Visa?
A non-immigrant visa allows you to enter the United States for a limited period and for a specific purpose, such as work, study, or travel. Unlike an immigrant visa, which offers a pathway to permanent residency and a chance to settle indefinitely, a non-immigrant visa grants you temporary permission to stay in the U.S. as long as you meet the established requirements of the specific visa category under which you are applying.
Navigating the complex landscape of U.S. visa options and understanding which one fits your particular situation can be quite challenging. It’s crucial to determine the right type of visa for your needs—be it for work, education, leisure, business, or another temporary purpose.

What Kinds of Non-Immigrant Visas Are There?
The United States offers a wide range of non-immigrant visas, each designed for a specific purpose. B-category visas allow individuals to visit the U.S. for business or tourism. E-category visas are available for traders and investors, and one type is reserved for Australian nationals working in certain professional occupations. Students pursuing academic or vocational programs typically apply for F- or M-visas, while workers in professional fields may qualify for H-1 visas. Other temporary worker categories include H-2 visas for seasonal or short-term labor and H-3 visas for trainees and exchange participants.
For cultural and educational programs, J- and Q-visas permit foreign visitors to participate in exchange opportunities in the United States. Individuals engaged to U.S. citizens may apply for the K-1 fiancé visa (link to fiancé visa page), which requires marriage within 90 days of arrival. Employees of multinational companies may qualify for L-visas, which permit temporary assignments to U.S. offices. Those with extraordinary ability in fields such as science, business, athletics, education, or the arts may be eligible for O-visas, while P-visas allow entertainers, athletes, and coaches to work or perform in their fields.
Other categories include R-1 visas for religious workers, as well as T- and U-visas for victims of trafficking or certain crimes who assist U.S. authorities. Finally, TN visas allow qualified Canadian and Mexican professionals to work temporarily in the U.S. under the USMCA agreement.
