01

Why are you going to the United States?

Select one option.

This guide does not assume one immigration route. First choose the reason you are going and the status that fits that purpose. A permanent move through family is different from employment-based immigration; temporary work is different from permanent work; study is different from an internship or exchange; and temporary business or tourism is not the same as moving to the United States. Once you choose your pathway, use the matching official tools, forms and services shown in the guide. Always verify current eligibility and requirements with the responsible U.S. government agency before applying or making travel plans.
