Do applicants need to demonstrate that they are properly classified as visitors under U.S. law?
• A: Applicants must demonstrate that they are properly classifiable as visitors under U.S. law. You can provide evidence that shows the purpose of the trip, intent to depart the United States, and arrangements made to cover the costs of the trip. It’s impossible to say the exact form the evidence should take, since applicants’ circumstances vary greatly. Persons traveling to the U.S. on business can present a letter from the U.S. business firm indicating the purpose of the trip, the bearer’s intended length of stay and the firm’s intent to defray travel costs. Persons traveling to the U.S. for pleasure may use letters from relatives or friends in the U.S. whom the applicant plans to visit or confirmation of participation in a planned tour. Persons traveling to the U.S. for medical treatment should have a statement from a doctor or institution concerning proposed medical treatment.
