I'd be seeking to come to the US to stay with a Catholic religious community, with a view to exploring the taking of vows. I'd be working in a voluntary capacity, engaging in prayer, and being instructed on site. I would be supported by the community whilst I'm there but not be paid. I would be with the community for up to 5 years before making life vows, although by then I'd need to be exploring perm residency options. Not sure what visa I'd need to begin with? Thank you!
You will need a U.S. sponsoring organization or church. You will also need to specify your position in the church, i.e. nun, priest, cantor, etc. Once you have a U.S. organization to sponsor your R visa, contact us to schedule a time with your sponsor/employer. 888.401.1016 or info@raylawinterntional.com

I have been a pastor for several years in a North African country and partnered with an American church. Currently I am an asylum seeker in the USA. My question: Can I apply for the R1 Visas-Religious Worker? Thank you in advance for your answer.
Highly likely, but we will need more facts that you have not included in your description. You can reach out to us, during normal business hours - Monday ~ Friday to see what your options are. 888.401.1016 / info@raylawinternational.com
More information is needed. Feel free to set up a consultation with our office at 888.401.1016 on Monday EST so we can get all of the facts. We will need to know how long that person overstayed; when the overstay took place; the reason for the overstay; are they applying for their new R-1 Visa Stamp in their home country; Are they still in the U.S. seeking to file a new petition with the USCIS after they have already overstayed. Have the religious work provide, passport, I-94s, visa stamps and other related information for us to evaluate. Sorry cannot provide more guidance based on the limited information provided. This is more importantly handled in our initial consultation process. 888.401.1016
Hi, If a minister with 2+ years of experience from abroad starts a 501c3 nonprofit in the US with 2 other US citizens and if he is also on the board of directors, can he get an R1 visa to work for that same nonprofit? Thank you
Based on the simple reading of your facts, most likely not, since one would need to be a member for at least two years prior to filing. Not simply have two years of experience. However it will depend on whether the new entity is related to the organization where the minister obtained the two years of membership. Remember, it is based on membership, not experience. www.uscis.gov/forms/explore-my-options/r-1-visa-temporary-nonimmigrant-religious-workers
Can a theology degree from US university offer me a job for pastor or religious worker? How are the opportunities like? After completion of the course can we get work visas like OPT, CPT.
The B-1/B-2 should be most appropriate for just attending a conference or attending the conference as a speaker. R-1 is more for if you planned to work in the U.S. in that religious organization. Hope this helps. Where is the conference going to be held? Enjoy your trip and conference.

If your GC is based on marriage to a USC, then yes. If your GC is based on an employment-based category, you will be limited until the GC is issued.

It is not automatic. A petition must be filed with the USCIS to extend. You can file the extension 6 month prior to expiration so file early.

One would need to show that playing a sport is a religious activity. Unlikely, but much will depend on the facts.
