HR 6670

This bill, the Temporary Family Visitation Act, creates a new type of nonimmigrant visa for relatives of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. It allows these relatives to temporarily visit the United States for family-related reasons, such as social events or major life occasions. To qualify, petitioners must demonstrate financial support and the relative must have travel insurance and affirm their intention to return home, with certain exceptions for extraordinary circumstances. The bill also includes provisions to prevent abuse and ensure accountability for overstays.
