I-2 Visa

The I-2 visa is for foreign media employees or members of foreign press, radio, or film organizations who are coming to the United States to cover a specific event, such as a news conference or sporting event.

Key points about I visas include:

  • To qualify for an I visa, applicants must be employed by a foreign media organization and provide evidence of their affiliation and their role as a representative of the media;
  • I visa holders are generally authorized to work in the United States for the specific media organization that sponsored their visa;
  • Spouses and dependent children of I visa holders are typically eligible for I-3 visas, which allow them to accompany the primary visa holder to the United States.
I visas are designed to facilitate the free flow of information across international borders and to enable foreign media representatives to cover events and produce media content in the United States.
