Nonimmigrant Visas

Nonimmigrant visas are intended for non-U.S. citizens coming to the U.S. temporarily. This visa allows its holder to travel to a U.S. port-of-entry (airport, for example) and request permission of the Department of Homeland Security immigration inspector to enter the U.S. A visa does not guarantee entry into the United States. There is a variety of nonimmigrant visa types, each relating to the principal purpose of its holder’s travel to the U.S. While in the U.S., temporary visitors are restricted to the activity or reason for which their nonimmigrant visa was issued, with few exceptions.
