Overview
The B-1/B-2 visitor visa is for people traveling to the United States temporarily for business (B-1) or for pleasure or medical treatment (B-2). Generally, the B-1 visa is for travelers consulting with business associates, attending scientific, educational, professional or business conventions/conferences, settling an estate or negotiating contracts. The B-2 visa is for travel that is recreational in nature, including tourism, visits with friends or relatives, medical treatment and activities of a fraternal, social or service nature. Often, the B-1 and B-2 visas are combined and issued as one visa: the B-1/B-2.
Qualification
If you apply for a B-1/B-2 visa, you must demonstrate to a consular officer that you qualify for a U.S. visa in accordance with the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Section 214(b) of the INA presumes that every B-1/B-2 applicant is an intending immigrant. You must overcome this legal presumption by showing:
- That the purpose of your trip to the United States is for a temporary visit, such as business, pleasure, or medical treatment
- That you plan to remain in the United States for a specific, limited period of time
- Evidence of funds to cover your expenses while in the United States
- That you have a residence outside the United States, as well as other binding social or economic ties, that will ensure your return abroad at the end of your visit.
The specific requirements may vary depending on your individual circumstances and the U.S. Embassy or Consulate’s guidelines.
Requirements
- Valid Passport: Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay in the USA.
- Nonimmigrant Visa Application (Form DS-160): Complete the online DS-160 form accurately with all the required information.
- Photo: Provide a recent photograph that meets the specific photo requirements mentioned by the U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
- Proof of Business Purpose: Prepare documentation that demonstrates the purpose of your trip, such as an invitation letter from a U.S. company, conference registration, or business meeting itinerary.
- Business Ties in Nepal: Provide evidence of your strong ties to Nepal, such as ownership documents, business registration, financial records, or employment verification.
- Financial Documentation: Show proof of your financial stability to cover the expenses during your stay in the USA. This may include bank statements, tax returns, or sponsorship letters.
- Travel Itinerary: Present a detailed plan of your intended business activities, including meetings, conferences, or trade shows you will attend.
- Accommodation Details: Provide information about your accommodation arrangements in the USA, such as hotel bookings or a letter of invitation from a U.S. host.
- Travel Insurance: Consider obtaining travel insurance that covers medical emergencies, trip cancellation, and other unforeseen circumstances.
- Consular Interview: Schedule an appointment with the U.S. Embassy or Consulate for a personal interview. Be prepared to answer questions about your business, purpose of travel, and ties to Nepal.
Supporting Documents for Applicants Seeking Medical Care
If you wish to travel to the United States for medical treatment, then you should be prepared to present the following documentation in addition to the documents listed above and those the consular officer may require:
- A medical diagnosis from a local physician explaining the nature of your ailment and the reason you require treatment in the United States.
- A letter from a physician or medical facility in the United States expressing a willingness to treat this specific ailment and detailing the projected length and cost of treatment (including doctors’ fees, hospitalization fees, and all medical-related expenses).
- A statement of financial responsibility from the individuals or organization paying for your transportation, medical and living expenses. The individuals guaranteeing payment of these expenses must provide proof of their ability to do so, often in the form of bank or other statements of income/savings or certified copies of income tax returns.
