USA Immigration law states that you must obtain a visa to enter America. A visa is an official 'permit' authorizing you to enter the USA, for a specific reason and for a specified period of time. There are many different types of visas and depending on the nature of your visit to the USA (e.g. travel, study, work), this will decide which is the most appropriate visa for you. There are two seperate USA Visa classifications:- "Immigrant" visa and "NonImmigrant" visa:
The most common USA Visa is a "Nonimmigrant" Visa - this is for someone who intends to come to the USA "temporarily" and for a specific purpose. Typically on an H1B Work Visa, F1 Study Visa, L1 Intra-Company Transfer Visa, K and V Fiancee Visas.
An "Immigrant" Visa is for someone who intends to relocate to the USA, to live and work "permanently" (Green Card - Lawful Permanent Residents).
