Someone please helps me.
Nowadays, churches are looking for pianists and musci director to lead their worship service. If I play piano for the church, would I be qualified to have a religious visa? What if I am hired as a music director by a church, would I be qualified to have a religious visa? Thank you for your help. Tom |

But to me it seems like a rather marginal case. You could probably get H-1B more easily than R-1. You would definitely need professional legal assistance to obtain this status. See http://travel.state.gov/visa;tempreligiwkr.html, and see the regulations at 8 CFR section 214.2(r), available through http://www.ins.usdoj.gov/graphics/lawsregs/8cfr.htm. |
