Under U.S. law, a consular officer has the authority to determine if you qualify for a visa. But it is your job to show the U.S. government that you meet the requirements and are therefore eligible for a B-1 and/or B-2 visa. You do not have to prepare for this process alone, our experienced immigration attorneys can assist you.
The following are the basic requirements to successfully obtain a visa.
• Connections to your home country
• Foreign residence (i.e. ownership, lease, etc.)
• Foreign business(es)
• Employment(s)
