Tap into League visa services amidst a wave of changing rules for guest artists

February 12, 2020

The League provides specialized assistance in navigating the complex visa requirements for guest artists. Orchestras should take note that multiple changes are being made to the forms used for visa processing, new requirements are in place for artists applying for an extension of their stay or a change in visa status, and the Trump Administration announced an expansion of travel restrictions, all while U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is considering a dramatic increase in filing fees. All of the details regarding policy changes are described in the news update section of the League’s dedicated website Artists from Abroad, and the League’s Washington, D.C. office is standing by to provide assistance to help orchestras continue to engage in essential international artistry.
