What is the S Visa in the USA: Visa for Informants and Cooperators

The S Visa is a special category of US non-immigrant visa granted to foreigners who have important information about crimes or terrorist activities and are willing to cooperate with the US government. It is intended for those who assist law enforcement or investigative agencies by providing evidence, testimony, or information that is essential to an investigation or trial.

There are two main types:

S-5 - for informants who assist in criminal investigations;
S-6 - for those who contribute to the investigation or prevention of terrorist acts.

This visa can also include family members of the applicant (usually the spouse and children under 21 years of age).

Receive a recommendation from a government agency confirming the value of the information and the need for a visa.
Do not pose a threat to US national or public security.
Be willing to reside in the US for up to 3 years, with the possibility of applying for permanent residence (Green Card) upon successful completion of cooperation.
