Eligibility for Diplomatic Visa Issuance In the United States AGENCY: Department of State. ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This rule is promulgated to add categories of nonimmigrants who may be issued nonimmigrant visas in the United States. This amendment will add a limited category of nonimmigrants who are born in the United States, but not subject to the jurisdiction thereof, to noncitizens maintaining A-1, A-2, C-2, C-3, G-1, G-3, G-4, or NATO nonimmigrant status and properly classifiable as such. The goal of these revisions is to codify the longstanding policy allowing such children to be issued diplomatic visas domestically to document their entitlement to A, C, G, or NATO nonimmigrant status. DATES: This rule is effective August 31, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrea Lage, Acting Senior Regulatory Coordinator, Visa Services, Bureau of Consular Affairs, 600 19th Street NW, Washington, DC 20522, 202-485-7586, <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#f0a6998391a2959783b08384918495de979f86"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5107382230033436221122253025347f363e27">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: What changes to 22 CFR 41.111 does the Department propose? This rule amends the regulation identifying categories of nonimmigrants who may be issued nonimmigrant visas in the United States, by adding a limited category of nonimmigrants who are born in the United States, but not subject to the jurisdiction thereof, as they were born to certain nonimmigrants maintaining A-1, A-2, C-2, C-3, G-1, G-3, G-4, or NATO status and properly classifiable as such. Prior to this amendment, the regulation identifying categories of noncitizens authorized to obtain diplomatic nonimmigrant … limited group of children would therefore be present in the United States without any documentation of their A, C-2, C-3, G or NATO nonimmigrant status. The Department's policy is that such children should be issued documentation of their A, C-2, C-3, G or NATO nonimmigrant status, as provided for by law for derivatives of the principal nonimmigrant. This amendment will codify existing policy permitting diplomatic visa issuance in the United States to this limited group of children, whose parents and other family members already are covered by the regulation describing issuance of diplomatic visas … in the A, C-2, C-3, G or NATO category and intend to reenter the United States in that status after a temporary absence abroad and who also present evidence that: (i) They have been lawfully admitted in that status or have, after admission, had their classification changed to that status; and (ii) Their period of authorized stay in the United States in that status has not expired; and (2) Children who are born in the United States, but who are not subject to the jurisdiction thereof because they are born to certain qualified individuals who are currently maintaining status and are properly classifiable …
