Amidst unprecedented demand, record breaking wait times, and now – greater costs – to travel to the United States,Boundless aims to simplify the path to personal and professional travel to the United States with a new Travel Visa service.
SEATTLE, June 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Boundless Immigration, an organization that empowers families to navigate the immigration system more confidently and affordably, today announced the launch of its B1/B-2 Travel Visa service to help visitors successfully get to - or in some cases remain in - the United States.
This year, wait times for first-time visa applicants can take more than a year, and in some top inbound markets, the backlog is more than three years. Developed with former USCIS officers, Boundless' B-1/B-2 Travel Visa solution not only helps individuals prepare for their interview, but in an effort to demystify the process also provides an approval odds calculator that identifies areas that might make getting the travel visa challenging or lead to rejection, and incorporates them into a personalized one-on-one coaching session.
"Boundless has been the steadfast supporter of immigrants starting their lives in the U.S. for more than a decade. As the labyrinth that is the U.S. immigration system grows ever more daunting, expensive, and taxing, we're committed to broadening our support, to those hoping to visit the U.S. for work, travel, and opportunity." said Xiao Wang, co-founder and CEO, Boundless Immigration. "In the wake of countless layoffs, impacting thousands of immigrant families on work visas, we hope our B1/B2 Visa Service can also be leveraged for people who need to quickly change status as they pursue new job opportunities in the U.S.
The H-1B program is the largest U.S. temporary work visa program, with more than 600,000 workers, and since 2022, more than 85,000 people with H1B status have been impacted by layoffs. If H1-B Visa holders lose their job, they have 180 days before they're forced to leave the country. But adjusting to a B1/B2 visa can buy these skilled workers time. If they change status from H1B, foreign workers can continue their job search in the U.S. for up to a year.
On top of backlogs, The U.S. Department of State recently announced that it will increase nonimmigrant visa fees by more than 15%, requiring all individuals applying after June 17 to pay the new fee. If an application is rejected, the applicant is forced to go through the entire process again, along with paying the visa fees again.
Boundless' B1-B2 Travel Visa service includes:
- One-on-one interview coaching with visa experts, trained by a former consular officer
- A personalized visa plan to reduce an applicant's risk of denial
- Start-to-finish support with an expert helping to file the strongest application to scheduling the soonest interview
- 24/7 live support from visa experts
- Denial protection with Boundless helping to reapply again in case of denial
