What types of Visitor Visas does the U.S. have?
To be able to travel in the United States, a foreign citizen must either obtain a nonimmigrant visa for temporary stay or an immigrant visa permanently.

Why would I be refused entry to the U.S.?
There are many reasons why you would be refused entry in the U.S., but the most common reason is not having all the required documents. Other reasons include having expired documents, overstaying a prior visa and in really rare cases criminal background problems.

Why do so many tourists visit The U.S. in the summer?
Because the Unites States is such a big country, visiting it at any time of the year is no problem due to how many attractions it has.
Most tourists visit the U.S. though during the summer and the reason for that is because of the different types of landscapes across the country, which can be enjoyed more during the beautiful weather in the summer.
In America during the summer not only do you have the clear blue beaches, you also have exciting music festivals, beautiful mountains, theme parks and much more.
According to U.S. News & World Report’s annual Best Vacations rankings, in 2020 the number one vacation spot is the Grand Canyon National Park located in Arizona!
There tourists can hike and raft down the Colorado River and visit the Grand Canyon.
