Bill overview
The Temporary Family Visitation Act creates a new type of nonimmigrant visa that allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to temporarily host relatives for visits. To qualify, applicants must have health insurance for their stay, and a sponsor must provide an undertaking demonstrating financial support. The visa is limited to a 90-day stay, and certain restrictions apply to those who have previously overstayed visas or petitioned for relatives in the past. This new visa is available to those awaiting an immigrant visa while meeting eligibility requirements.
