[SIZE=6]What is a P1 Visa?[/SIZE]
The P-1 Visa is targeted at nationally and internationally recognized athletes and performers. It is a non-immigrant visa type that was created with the intention of allowing overseas athletes to participate in U.S athletic programs with the intention to promote themselves and/or their sport. This visa is also applicable to individual entertainers or groups for the purposes of entering the U.S to participate in entertainment programs, competitions, or other activities.
To be eligible, you must meet specific requirements, such as having a sponsor and staying in the U.S. temporarily.
The P Visa status admits two different categories:

[li]P1A Visa, for internationally recognized athletes or an athletic team[/li][li]P1B Visa, for individuals or members of an entertainment group[/li][/ul]
This visa is granted for a maximum initial period of 5 years, but this can vary depending on individual circumstances. You can also extend this visa type but keep in mind that the maximum amount of time someone can spend in the U.S under this visa is 10 years.
