WHAT DOES THE US VISA ALLOW YOU TO DO?
🔸 Tourist visa type B1/B2 is valid for 1 year, allowing you to enter the US multiple times for the purpose of tourism, visit relatives, medical treatment or short-term work.
🔸 The number of days you can stay in the US per entry will be recorded in your passport by the immigration officer and is usually 180 days from the date of entry. You should not stay more than this allowed number to avoid trouble or difficulty in applying for a visa next time.
🔸 Upon entry, the staff will stamp your passport, but when exiting, do not pay anything, because after checking in, you go straight to the boarding gate and do not need to go through exit procedures.
🔸 The expiration date indicated on the visa is also the last day you can enter the US and can stay up to 180 days. This is different from many countries in the world, where the expiration date indicated on the visa is also the date you have to leave their country.
🔸 Having a US visa does not guarantee you will be allowed to enter their country. When entering at the border gate, the immigration officer will ask you a few questions before deciding whether to allow you to enter their country or not.
🔸 Asking more or less depends on the number of stars * located below the sticker on your visa. This number of stars is marked by the visa officer based on the reliability and transparency of the information you provide when completing the D160 application and at the interview.
🔸 Usually, the following 3 cases are encountered: 1 star (*), 2 consecutive stars (**) and 2 separate stars (* *). According to some of you who have 1 star (*), when entering the US, there are very few questions. Visa with 2 consecutive stars (**) is also asked a few questions. As for visas with 2 separate stars (* *), when entering, they are asked a lot, including questions about how many days to go, which cities to go to, which countries to fly to the US through, and airfare to leave the US. …?
ABA VISA has not encountered a case of no stars or 3, so I don't know if it is asked more or less.
🔸 From the 2nd entry onwards they will ask less. And from the 2nd visa onwards, the number * on the visa will be less (usually 1 *).
