How do parents accompany their children to study in the United States?

The immigration law of the United States does set a partner visa category, that is, F2 visa. However, the law clearly stipulates that applicants for accompanying visas are limited to overseas spouses and minor children of international students studying in the United States. Obviously, the parents of foreign students are not among them.

Parents of students who want to visit their children in the United States can apply for a visit visa (B2). Once the visa is approved, you will get multiple valid B 1/B2 visas within one year. During the validity of the visa, you can buy a plane ticket to fly to the United States to see the children at any time. The time you can stay in the United States with a B 1/B2 visa is determined by the immigration officer of the US border customs, and you can stay in the United States for up to 6 months (usually no more than 3 months). This visa is also very convenient for you to visit your children in America from time to time.

Finally, remind parents who plan to go to the United States to see their children that they must not make a mistake about the visa category when applying for a visa. Otherwise, your application will be rejected.
