USCIS Updates Guidance Related to Religious Workers

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced updated guidance for religious workers. The efforts expand and reorganize existing guidance. Per the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), qualified individuals who are affiliated with a verified religious organization or affiliate are given the option to apply for a special immigrant visa, the R-1 nonimmigrant visa classification. This visa allows the recipient to temporarily enter the United States as a minister for a specific religious organization.
