P2 Visa – Artists or Entertainers (reciprocal)

Posted by Jobs Abroad On January - 14 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

P2 Visa Overview

It’s a nonimmigrant visa for a person who wishes to work temporarily in the United States.

Time Limits: Fixed time limits in which the foreign citizen may perform services in the United States. In some cases those time limits may be extended by USCIS in order to permit the completion of the services. Thereafter, the foreign citizen must remain abroad for a fixed period of time before being readmitted as a temporary worker under any classification. USCIS will notify the petitioner on Form I-797 whenever a visa petition, an extension of a visa petition, or an extension of stay is approved under any of the above classifications. The beneficiary may use a copy of Form I-797 to make an appointment to apply for a new or revalidated visa during the validity period of the petition. The approval of a permanent labor certification or the filing of a preference petition for an foreign citizen under the H-1 or L classifications shall not be a basis for denying a visa.

P2 Visa Eligibility

P-2 classification applies to artists or entertainers who will perform under a reciprocal exchange program

P2 Visa Notes/Exclusions

Visa Ineligibility / Waiver
The nonimmigrant visa application Form DS-156 lists classes of persons who are ineligible under U.S. law to receive visas. In some instances an applicant who is ineligible, but who is otherwise properly classifiable as a temporary worker, may apply for a waiver of ineligibility and be issued a visa if the waiver is approved.

P2 Visa Family Members

The spouse and unmarried, minor children of an applicant under any of the above classifications may also be classified as nonimmigrant’s in order to accompany or join the principal applicant. A person who has received a visa as the spouse or child of a temporary worker (a petition-based NIV), may not accept employment in the United States.

P2 Visa Processing Times may vary: approx from few weeks to few months

P2 Visa Processing Price (Government Filling Fee): from $355 + Consular fee +Translations

P2 Visa Processing Price (Average Attorney Fee): from $600 – $800

Who Pays The Fee?:
This is dependent on the visa type. In some cases the employer will pay and in some cases, and if it’s a non sponsored visa the applicant would pay. Some employers may request that you pay your own consulate fees and travel to the country, while others may not. It usually depends on the skill level, the type of position and the type of visa. For some visa types it maybe the law of the country that applicants should not pay any fees.
