B-2 Visas (Visitor Visas to the U.S.) in Tampa Florida
B-2 visas are non-immigrant visitor visas that authorize travel to the U.S. for pleasure, including vacations, visiting family who live in the U.S., or medical procedures or treatment. B-2 visa holders may not work for a U.S. employer, study for credit hours, or apply for permanent residence during their stay on a travel visa.

We have nearly a decade of experience helping clients accurately complete forms for the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) department.

How to Apply for a B-2 Visa
Applying for B-2 visas requires specific documentation and scheduling interview appointments at your country’s U.S. embassy or consulate. Your application requires:
- Completing form DS-160 online.
- Printing the confirmation page for your interview.
- Uploading your digital photo.
- Paying the $160 filing fee.
- Scheduling and attending your interview at your U.S. embassy or consulate.
At your interview, you will need to bring any receipts for your application and the confirmation page for your DS-160. Either at the interview or at a second appointment, you will need to submit digital fingerprints. You may also have to submit additional information for administrative purposes.
Exemptions for Requirements for B-2 Visas
Some countries qualify for the Visa Waiver Program (VWP), which allows visitors from these countries to enter the U.S. without needing B-2 visas. 38 countries qualify for the VWP.
You must have an electronic passport to qualify. You will need to attend an interview with U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers on arrival to determine admissibility. If you’re unsure if you qualify for VWP, contact our offices for help applying for a B-2 travel visa.
