How to go to America without breaking the law

How to go to America? In the modern world such a question is not uncommon. This country has always been and continues to be a place of attraction for both numerous tourists and immigrants with refugees.

If you also asked such a question, it means that you are probably already aware that you can get to this country by a huge number of visas, and getting an American visa is a rather complicated process and very often ends in a complete fiasco (well, they do not trust our brother !).

I suggest that you familiarize yourself with several options, and after reading the article you will be able to decide which method is right for you.

How to go to America. Method number 1.

The youth program "Work and Travel USA", which in Russian translation sounds like "Work and travel to the USA", is intended for international student exchange. During the summer holidays, all participants can legally stay on the territory of the state for up to five months, working and visiting local attractions. If you want to participate in this program, you need to be a bona fide student of an accredited school and have a good command of English.

How to go to America. Method number 2 . Win the Green Card Lottery.

It seems to me that you can not not hear about this event, arranged by the US government every year. And do not think that this is another trick. No! I know people who are lucky after all (after several attempts, and even from the first time!) To win, and now for several years they have been living in the land of their dreams. Of course, if you want to find yourself in the US as soon as possible, there's no point in counting on such illusive luck. But why not try it? Moreover, this procedure is absolutely free.

Once a year, in the autumn (the dates change yearly, so it is worth checking on the US government website), you are offered to fill out the simplest questionnaire in English, attach a photo to it and wait for the will of fate. The names of the winners are usually announced in the spring - the summer of the next calendar year. You can learn about luck by receiving a special notice on the mail or e-mail box, or by entering the unique code that was issued during registration.

How to go to America. Method number 3. Guest or tourist visa.

I combined these two types of visas for one reason: the procedure for obtaining them is almost the same, so the recommendations will be the same.

If you are invited to stay in the US (relatives, friends, former employees, it does not matter), they must send you a guest invitation in advance. And there is a misconception that such a document should have as many seals, stamps and prints of all kinds. It's a delusion. A document containing a huge amount of unnecessary tinsel, on the contrary, causes suspicion in the representative of the embassy. Preferably, if you are invited by a person of the same sex with you, then there is no question in terms of your likely marriage in the United States.

Before receiving a tourist visa in the US (for the guest procedure is the same), you will need to fill out a form posted on the embassy's website. This is done online and in English. This document is printed and taken with you to the interview.

The interview itself takes place in a free form. You do not need to present any documents, although in rare cases you may be asked for a certificate of salary from your place of work or a certificate of marriage. It is advisable to speak only the truth, but those who have already passed this procedure, recommend not to mention that you work, say, as an interpreter or as an English teacher. For some reason, it is believed that if a person has mastered the language and a certain number of years has perfected it, working on the specialty, it is only for the purpose to go to America in all possible ways. And happiness, according to the embassy's employees, he sees only in having a higher education, a worthy specialty and status at home, washing floors in a bar or roadside cafe in some Texas ... Delirium. I agree. But it's better to be safe ...

Here, perhaps, that's all. There are also visas for the investor, the bride, the worker and many others, but they require a more serious approach, and such cases should be considered only individually.
