Work Visa Lawyers in New York City
Nonimmigrant Work Visas - Serving Clients Throughout the United States
Nonimmigrant visas are issued to someone who will be in the United States on a temporary basis. These visas are given most commonly to people staying in the United States for a relatively short period of time, such as tourists and temporary business visitors. There are also many other nonimmigrant visa categories, and several of these categories allow their holders to study or to work in the United States.
Unlike immigrant visas, it is very easy to identify nonimmigrant visas because they all start with a letter, from A to V. Each of these visas allows for a different type of activity but may impose and set restrictions on the length of stay and the ability to leave and re-enter the United States.
It is important to recognize that even if you were issued a valid visa, entry into the United States is not guaranteed. Customs and border officials (CBP) make the final decision when you arrive at the port of entry. Enlisting the help of our qualified visa attorneys in New York City maximizes the chances that all visa requirements are met and helps the entire process go smoothly.
