What is a V Visa and who is eligible to receive it

The V Visa is a special category of non-immigrant visa that was created so that spouses and children of Green Card holders (LPR — Lawful Permanent Resident) could temporarily reside in the United States while waiting to receive an immigrant visa. The visa makes it possible to avoid many years of separation from family.

However, it is important to know: the V visa is valid only for Form I-130 petitions filed before December 21, 2000. If you or your relative filed this petition before the specified date, you have a chance to legally reunite in the United States for the period of consideration of the case.
