advice please? re.business visit to the US
Hoping that someone can help me. I'm trying to find out some info for a british citizen friend living in Canada who often does one-off jobs in the US. For these work engagements he enters the US on a work visa. However, he's going to the US next week for some meetings, not paid work nor tourism purposes so I checked out the US immigration website to get some info on this special type of business visit visa, and the only way I could get any info or application forms was by buying an application "kit" online, complete with all the forms necessary to obtain this visa. I think this is utterly ridiculous that I would have to pay a fee of $67.95, just to see if I am eligible or if my country is exempt from needing this visa. I guess that's capitalism at its best, where nothing in life is free anymore! Can someone please help? I would appreciate any advice or your own personal experiences. Thanks! Kim

Sounds like a scam if you have to pay for info...anyway, I'm not sure on this, but I would think a B1/2 Visa would be the one your looking for, work/tourist type thing....look that up.
