Religious Worker Visas
Definition:
The religious worker visa (R visa) is designated for ministers
of religion and other full-time religious workers. Religious worker
visa applicants must be a member of a religious denomination and
be a part of a tax-exempted religious non-profit organization. The religious
worker needs to be a member for two years before applying for the R visa.
The R visa allows religious workers to enter only to carry out a full-time
religious occupation.
Consequences of Religious Worker Visas:
R visa requirements may not be appropriate for many religious workers even though their trip to the U.S is planned for religious work. You need to prove that you maintain residence in a foreign country and plan to return upon completion of the religious activity/work.What a Lawyer can do for you:
When applying for an R visa, it is recommended to have an immigration review your personal circumstances. An immigration lawyer can make sure the R visa is the right visa for your needs and help you prepare all the necessary documents that may affect your application.Lawyer Referral Service:
