Visas: Documentation of Nonimmigrants Under the Immigration and Nationality Act; Waiver by Secretary of State and Attorney General of Passport and/or Visa Requirements for Certain Categories of Nonimmigrants

Краткое содержание

This final rule authorizes the District Director of the Immigration and Naturalization Service to exercise the Department of State's function with respect to the waiver of the passport and/or visa requirement under the provisions of section 212(d)(4)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). The rule eliminates time consuming procedures for obtaining the concurrence of passport and/or visa waivers, and benefits certain nonimmigrant aliens who, because of unforeseen circumstances, are subjected to delays when seeking admission to the United States without the required documents.
