Temporary Visas

The temporary visa classification covers a broad range of visas used to enter the United States for work, pleasure, or study.  Some visas allow for “dual intent.”  This means that you may attempt to obtain permanent residency (a green card) while under that classification.  Most temporary visas, however, require you establish non-immigrant intent.  This means you should demonstrate that you have a permanent residence in your home country that you have no intention of abandoning.  In fact, most visa application denials occur due to the applicant's inability to establish non-immigrant intent.

The duration of time you may spend in the U.S. can range from a few days to several years, depending on the visa.  In most situations, your spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21 may accompany you on a derivative visa.
