When a visa is essential for your plans, any mistakes can be costly and result in delays or outright denials.

Tourist Visas
Tourist visas, often referred to as B-2 visas, are designed for individuals seeking to enter the United States temporarily for tourism, pleasure, or to visit friends and family. This visa does not permit you to engage in any form of employment during your stay, and you must demonstrate that your permanent residence is outside the U.S. and you intend to return home after a limited time.
Temporary Business Visitor Visas
The B-1 visa is designed for individuals traveling to the U.S. for business purposes, such as conferences, seminars, or negotiations. Criteria for B-1 eligibility include:
- Your objective for U.S. entry involves lawful commercial activities within the United States
- You intend to stay for a designated, temporary period of time
- You have adequate financial resources to pay for your travel and accommodations while in the U.S.
- You maintain a permanent home in your country of origin with no plans to abandon it, demonstrating meaningful connections that guarantee your departure from the U.S. upon completing your business activities
- You meet all other requirements for entry into the United States
Domestic Worker Visas
Domestic workers accompanying foreign nationals on a temporary visit to the United States may be eligible for a B-1 visa. These visas allow domestic employees to accompany their employers and perform specific duties during their stay.
