Nonimmigrant Admissions Annual Flow Report

Nonimmigrants are foreign nationals granted temporary admission into the United States. The major purposes for which nonimmigrant admission may be authorized include temporary visits for business or pleasure, academic or vocational study, temporary employment, or to act as a representative of a foreign government or international organization, among others. See the nonimmigrant classes of admission list for detailed categories.

Our Annual Flow Reports on nonimmigrants contain information obtained from I-94 arrival records on the number and characteristics of nonimmigrant admissions to the United States during a given fiscal year.

Older annual flow reports may use outdated terminology. We have kept them as approved.
