Visa Details
Type of Visa -
Immigrant visas :-
Immigrant visas are issued to individuals traveling to the United
States to take up permanent residency. In most cases these individuals,
referred to as “beneficiaries,” are able to apply for
residency in the United States because of their relationship with
a U.S. citizen, legal permanent resident, or employer. The citizen,
resident, or employer who files the petition for the beneficiary
is the “petitioner.” The Department of Homeland Security
(DHS, previously INS) handles the processing and approval of petitions
in the U.S., while American Embassies or Consulates abroad interview
beneficiaries to ensure that they qualify for resident status. If
a beneficiary qualifies, the consular section issues the immigrant
visa.

Visa Application Form (EVAF). All H1 and L applicants will be required
