Pleasanton Temporary Work Visa Attorney
The nonimmigrant visa classification covers various visas used to enter the U.S. for work, pleasure, or study. Some visas are considered ‘dual intent’; you may attempt to obtain permanent residency (a green card) under that classification.
Most nonimmigrant visas, however, require you to establish the demonstration of nonimmigrant intent. This means you should demonstrate that you have a permanent residence in your home country that you have no intention of abandoning.
Depending on the visa, the time you may spend in the U.S. can range from a few days to several years. In most situations, your spouse and unmarried children under 21 may accompany you on a derivative visa.
