The K-2 visa allows the unmarried children of someone on a K-1 fiancée visa to enter the U.S. along with their parent. The K-1 visa allows the fiancée of an American citizen to come to the U.S., and is valid for 90 days, or until they marry.

In order to qualify for a K-2 visa, the applicant must be under 21, unmarried, and the child of a K-1 applicant.

The holder of a K-2 visa may reside in the U.S. with his or her family while his or her parent awaits the marriage. They may apply for employment authorization with the I-765 application, and they may study full time.

While on a K-2 visa, the holder may not change to any other non-immigrant status.
