ESZENYI, Auditor CAN A PERSON COME TO THE U. S. TO STUDY WITHOUT LOSING HIS PLACE ON THE QUOTA WAITING LIST? Question: I have a nephew in a country with an oversubscribed quota. Some years ago he registered with the American Consul for immigration, but we have been told that he will have to wait quite a time before his number is reached. Meanwhile, he has reached an age where his parents and I feel that an American education would be most beneficial to him. Is it possible for him to come to the United States to study without losing his place on the quota waiting list? Answer: Yes, in principle that is possible. The regulations permit persons to come to the United States for temporary visits, without losing their place on the quota list. However, in order to obtain a temporary visa, your nephew will have to persuade the Consul that he actually intends to return to his home after completion of his studies, no matter where on the quota list he may be. Frequently Consuls require a great deal of proof on this point, because they do not wish to help people evade the quota restrictions of the law.
