Section 1:
Non-Immigrant Business/
Worker Visa Categories
The B1 Visa Category
General Overview:
By far, the vast majority of aliens who enter the United States each year do so as nonimmigrant visitors in the
B visa category.
This type of visa covers alien visitors for
Business (B-1) and Pleasure (B-2).
Generally, stays in the U.S. in this category are brief, and involve such activities as touring, visiting family members, obtaining health care, or conducting business on behalf of an overseas employer.
Basic Info on The B Visa Category
Duration of Stay: Most stays in the U.S. under a B visa category are short. Generally, a B-1 visa (business visitor) will be granted only for a period of entry necessary to conduct his or her business. Individuals in the B-2 category (tourist visitor) are automatically given a period of entry of six months.
Application Process: The visa application process is straightforward. The B visa category requires application only to the U.S. consulate - no special permission needs to be obtained from INS before a visa is issued.
Special Conditions: The key condition of the B visa category is that the alien cannot engage in gainful employment (labor for hire) in the U.S. The crucial factor is: Will the alien be paid be paid a salary from a U.S. employer or otherwise engage in activity here that results in payment to the alien of a fee for services rendered?
The U.S. State Dept has specified
Five broad requirements for issuance of a B visal:
The alien is entering the U.S. for a Limited duration
The alien Intends to depart the U.S. at the expiration of his or her stay.
While in the U.S. the alien Maintains a foreign residence which he or she has no intention of abandoning.
The alien has Adequate financial arrangements to travel to, sojourn in, and depart from the U.S.
The alien will Engage solely in legitimate activities relating to business or pleasure.
The B Visa Category
Bona Fide Nonimmigrant Intent
:
For B visitors, it is important to show that they have bona fide nonimmigrant intent
. They can show that they harbor the correct intent by demonstrating that:
They plan only a temporary trip to the U.S.
They maintain a residence outside of the U.S. that they have no intention of abandoning.
The amount and type of proof necessary to make this showing can often depend on the alien’s personal and employment situation at home, and the nature of his or her plans in, and connections to, the United States.
You may be eligible for a B-1 visa if you will be participating in business activities of a commercial or professional nature in the United States, including, but not limited to:
Consulting with business associates
Traveling for a scientific, educational, professional or business convention, or a conference on specific dates
Settling an estate
Negotiating a contract
Participating in short-term training
Transiting through the United States: certain persons may transit the United States with a B-1 visa
Deadheading: certain air crewmen may enter the United States as deadhead crew with a B-1 visa
Eligibility Criteria
You must demonstrate the following in order to be eligible to obtain a B-1 visa:
The purpose of your trip is to enter the United States for business of a legitimate nature
You plan to remain for a specific limited period of time
You have the funds to cover the expenses of the trip and your stay in the United States
You have a residence outside the United States in which you have no intention of abandoning, as well as other binding ties which will ensure your return abroad at the end of the visit
You are otherwise admissible to the United States
Application Process
Period of Stay/Extension of Stay
Initial Period of Stay Extension of Stay is 1 to 6 months; maximum total amount of time permitted in B-1 status on any one trip is generally 1 year.
At the port of entry, an immigration official must authorize your admission to the United States, and, if you are eligible for admission, you may be admitted initially for the period necessary to carry out your business activities, up to a maximum period of 1 year.
If you who wish to stay beyond the time indicated on the Form I-94 without departing from the United States, you must file Form I-539, Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status and submit any required supporting documents to USCIS. For more information, see the Extend my Stay
page.
Family of B-1 Visa Holders
Your spouse and children are not eligible to obtain a dependent visa. Each of your dependents who will be accompanying or following to join you must apply separately for a B-2 visa and must follow the regulations for that visa.
Certain B-1 Activities that Require an Employment Authorization Document
The following types of B-1 business visitors require employment authorization:
A personal or domestic servant who is accompanying or following to join an employer who seeks admission into, or is already in, the United States in a B, E, F, H, I, J, L, or TN nonimmigrant classification.
A domestic servant of a U.S. citizen accompanying or following to join his or her U.S. citizen employer who has a permanent home or is stationed in a foreign country, and who is temporarily visiting the United States.
An employee of a foreign airline engaged in international transportation of passengers freight, whose position with the foreign airline would otherwise entitle the employee to treaty trader nonimmigrant classification (E-1) and who is precluded from such classification solely because the employee is not a national of the country of the airline's nationality or because there is no treaty of commerce and navigation in effect between the United States and the country of the airline's nationality.
Note: All applicants for a B-1 visa or admission as a B-1 business visitor as a personal or domestic servant described above must demonstrate the following:
You have a residence abroad in which you have no intention of abandoning
You have at least 1 year of experience as a personal or domestic servant
You have been employed abroad by your employer for at least 1 year prior to the employer’s admission into the United States or if you have been employed abroad by the employer for less than 1year, the employer must show that while abroad, he or she has regularly employed a domestic servant in the same capacity as that intended for your employment
Before you may commence employment in any of the above three activities, you will need to file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization. For more information on filing the Form I-765, see the Work Authorization
page.
E-1 Treaty Traders
The E-1 nonimmigrant classification allows a national of a treaty country (a country with which the United States maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation) to be admitted to the United States solely to engage in international trade on his or her own behalf. Certain employees of such a person or of a qualifying organization may also be eligible for this classification. (For dependent family members, see Family of E-1 Treaty Traders and Employees
below.)
See U.S. Department of State's Treaty Countries for a current list of countries with which the United States maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation.
Who May File for Change of Status to E-1 Classification
If the treaty trader is currently in the United States in a lawful nonimmigrant status, he or she may file Form I-129 to request a change of status to E-1 classification. If the desired employee is currently in the United States in a lawful nonimmigrant status, the qualifying employer may file Form I-129 on the employee’s behalf.
How to Obtain E-1 Classification if Outside the United States
A request for E-1 classification may not be made on Form I-129 if the person being filed for is physically outside the United States. Interested parties should refer to the U.S. Department of State website for further information about applying for an E-1 nonimmigrant visa abroad. Upon issuance of a visa, the person may then apply to a DHS immigration officer at a U.S. port of entry for admission as an E-1 nonimmigrant.
General Qualifications of a Treaty Trader
To qualify for E-1 classification, the treaty trader must:
Be a national of a country with which the United States maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation
Carry on substantial trade
Carry on principal trade between the United States and the treaty country which qualified the treaty trader for E-1 classification.
Trade is the existing international exchange of items of trade for consideration between the United States and the treaty country. Items of trade include but are not limited to:
Goods
Services
International banking
Insurance
Transportation
Tourism
Technology and its transfer
Some news-gathering activities.
See 8 CFR 214.2(e)(9) for additional examples and discussion.
Substantial trade generally refers to the continuous flow of sizable international trade items, involving numerous transactions over time. There is no minimum requirement regarding the monetary value or volume of each transaction. While monetary value of transactions is an important factor in considering substantiality, greater weight is given to more numerous exchanges of greater value. See 8 CFR 214.2(e)(10) for further details.
Principal trade between the United States and the treaty country exists when over 50% of the total volume of international trade is between the U.S. and the trader’s treaty country.
