US Medical Visa Cycle

Six months.

Usually, each B1 or B2 tourist visa allows you to stay for 6 months at a time for medical treatment. However, due to treatment problems, you need to stay in the United States for more than 6 months, so you need to extend the B visa. When applying, you need to contact the attending doctor in advance to issue a certificate proving the necessity of continuing to stay in the United States for treatment and that only the United States can provide this treatment.

To come to the United States for medical treatment, you usually obtain a B1 or B2 visa at the U.S. embassy or consulate in China. The basic documents you need to prepare are:

1. Proof of funds for medical treatment.

2. A letter issued by the contacted American doctor.

3. Personal identity certificate, such as notarized birth certificate, passport, etc.
