If you are interested in permanent residency, see the Immigration
Home Page.
If you are interested in entering the U.S. temporarily (not
to live or work permanently), this page is a good place to start.
To become a temporary visitor (also called a "nonimmigrant")
you are generally required to obtain a
visa,
which will allow you to present yourself to an immigration official
at the U.S. border for entry into the U.S. Your stay in the U.S.
must be for a limited period of time and restricted to the activity
or reason for which your visa was issued. You will need a valid
passport issued by your own country, and, in most cases you must
maintain a foreign residence. You may also be required to show proof
of financial support.
