Hi there,

Basic background: I'm a US citizen, he's Chilean (so no VWP... yet), and we've decided to live in Chile for a period of time (~10 years?) and then possibly immigrate to the US after this period. We'll marry in Chile early 2013.

My question is the following: is there any sort of visitor's visa that he would be able to obtain in the future, so that he can come with me on trips to visit my family for Christmas, family events, etc. etc.? All of the non-immigration visas for spouses seem to have the intention of eventual immigration... and one time things. Is there really no visa for multiple entries over several years? I'd hate to have to apply for a visa each and every time that we want to visit the US together, but that seems to be the case... and that it's a disincentive to give him the visa because we're married... Please tell me I'm wrong!

Thank you,

Beth

B2 Visa.

Some people get them for multi-entry some don't.

Would him being married to a US citizen be a disadvantage when applying for the visa?

Yes, a big one.
