R-2 VISA Global Allianz Law Firm LLP has the expertise to file your immigration application for R-2 visa.

The R-2 visa is a non-immigrant visa which allows the spouses and unmarried children of R-1 religious workers to enter into the U.S. and reside with their family. Dependents (spouses and unmarried children under 21 years of age) of R-1 workers are entitled to R-2 status with the same restrictions as the principal. Dependents may be students in the U.S., but may not be employed under the R-2 classification. Note: Dependents should file for a change of status or extension of stay on Form I-539 (Application to Extend/change Non-immigrant Status).

QUALIFICATION You must be a spouse or an unmarried child under the age of 21 years of R-1 worker.

The parent of a T-1 visa holder may be included in the initial T-1 visa application or alternatively, they may file a separate T-4 visa application at a later date.

DURATION R– Visa is initially issued for 3 years and can be extended for 2 more years i.e. total 5 years. To extend the visa for 2 more years the person has to file Form I-129, petition for a non-immigrant worker to apply for an extension stay. Your spouse and children must file form I-539.

If the person likes to extend its stay beyond 5 years in US, he/she must reside and be physically present outside US for 1 year.
