Dual Nationality : If you have dual nationality then you can use the qualifying nationality to satisfy this requirement. However, if you entered the US under one nationality (non-qualifying) you will not be able to switch to an alternative nationality for E visa purposes. Your attorney will advise you accordingly.

Please Note : there are no nationality requirements for the accompanying spouse and or child (ren).
