Types of Visa Available To Temporary Visitors or Workers

The U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) provides several categories of nonimmigrant visas for those who want to visit or work temporarily in the United States.

You can find out more about each type of nonimmigrant visa from the travel.state.gov website.

Those seeking to move to the United States on a permanent basis require what the INA refers to as an immigrant visa.  You can find more information on immigrant visas in the immigrant visa section of our website.
