As a lawyer, I can inform you that there are several types of visas available for individuals who want to immigrate to the United States. Broadly speaking, there are two categories of visas: temporary visas and permanent visas.
Temporary visas are issued to individuals who are visiting the United States for a limited period of time. Examples of temporary visas include:
- Tourist visas (B-2)
- Student visas (F-1)
- Work visas (H-1B)
- Exchange visitor visas (J-1)
Permanent visas, on the other hand, are issued to individuals who wish to immigrate to the United States permanently. Examples of permanent visas include:
- Family-based visas (such as family-sponsored immigrant visas and fiancé(e) visas)
- Employment-based visas (such as EB-1, EB-2, and EB-3 visas)
- Diversity visas (also known as the Green Card lottery)
It is important to note that each type of visa has its own requirements, limitations, and processing times. Additionally, there may be exceptions and special circumstances that affect an individual's eligibility for a particular visa.
Therefore, individuals who are seeking to immigrate to the United States should consult a licensed attorney who can provide tailored legal advice based on their unique situation and goals.
If you require further information regarding visas available to immigrate to the United States, I encourage you to consult the U.S. Department of State's website or speak with a licensed attorney who specializes in immigration law.
