Default B1/B2 Visa

Hi

Apologies if this has been asked previously. My husband is in the process of applying for a B1/B2 visa for his work when we move to Canada. On the application it asks for 'address where you will stay in the US'. As he will be driving he will not know where he will be staying???? How do we get round this part of the application?

He has a police record which after police check has returned as 'No Live trace'

Pick a hotel, a suitably businessy one, somewhere near where he will be visiting.

The thing is because his job is trucking he will not know where he will be going or staying.

Ok...but after a transatlantic flight he's going straight to trucking and not staying anywhere that night? Strange...

My understanding is that he's flying to Canada and then not using the B-1 visa until he actually has a trucking job that takes him over the border into the USA. He's trying to get the B-1 ahead of time, and it's asking for the address where he'll be staying in the USA.

Yes Noorah101 that's what we are trying to do as he will have to attend an interview at the embassy prior to being issued with a visa to travel into the US.

Pick a motel or truck stop near the Canadian border.

His ACPO certificate says 'No Live Trace' - is that for a conviction or a caution?
