Covid-19 Testing Requirement Temporarily Removed For Certain Individuals Traveling To The US From Ukraine

Several clients contacted us recently about family members who were able to exit Ukraine and are looking to fly to the United States with valid visas but cannot obtain a pre-departure Covid-19 test due to extenuating circumstances. 
 
On February 15, 2022, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), determined that it is in the national interest of the United States to temporarily permit the entry of certain individuals who were physically present in Ukraine as of February 10, 2022 without the requirement that they provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test result prior to boarding a flight to the United States or to complete the attestation at Section 1 of the Combined Passenger Disclosure Attestation to the United States of America form.  This temporary change is currently scheduled to remain in place until April 1, 2022 and applies to the following groups of individuals:

How Does the U.S. Visitor Visa (B-1/B-2) Process Work?

How Does the U.S. Visitor Visa (B-1/B-2) Process Work?

Depending on the country from which one is visiting, the process to get a U.S. visa can be long and involve documentation, expensive fees and a personal interview at an overseas Embassy or Consulate, or it can be a relatively easy process of completing an electronic application online.  In both situations, however, the process can often result in confusion when someone receives their visitor visa which shows that it is valid for multiple years.  That is because many visitor visas state that they are valid for ten years, while others show a relatively short duration (such as three months).

It is not uncommon for a visitor to misunderstand the rules, and mistakenly think that they can remain in the U.S. for the entire 10 years (or the shorter duration of their specific visa).  That is not the case at all!
