What Is A U-Visa?
If you have been subjected to a crime within the boundaries of the United States or in violation of U.S. laws, you may be eligible for a U nonimmigrant visa. This visa offers a degree of protection against the offender and aids the investigative process so that the offender can face legal consequences. The visa also provides temporary legal status in the U.S. while the crime is being investigated and the offender prosecuted.
Who Is Eligible For A U-Visa?
The criteria to qualify for a U-visa include:
- Being a victim of one or more designated crimes
- Cooperating with any relevant law enforcement agency or agencies in the investigation
