EE.UU. establece fianzas permanentes para visas B-1/B-2
El Departamento de Estado de Estados Unidos anunció que el programa de fianzas para visas B-1/B-2 se hará permanente, requiriendo una garantía económica de hasta 20 mil dólares. Esta medida entrará en vigor el 3 de agosto y afectará a ciudadanos de 50 países, principalmente en África. El objetivo es asegurar que los titulares de visas temporales cumplan con su estatus migratorio y abandonen Estados Unidos dentro del periodo autorizado. Los montos de fianza serán determinados individualmente por funcionarios consulares, con opciones de 10, 15 o 20 mil dólares, ajustables según factores como el motivo del viaje, ingresos y vínculos con EE.UU. El programa sustituye al piloto que operó desde agosto de 2025, eliminando la opción de 5 mil dólares y aumentando el máximo a 20 mil, con ajustes anuales por inflación. Los países participantes serán publicados en el sitio oficial del Departamento de Estado al menos 15 días antes de su vigencia. Quienes estén sujetos al programa deberán ingresar y salir únicamente por aeropuertos comerciales autorizados, y la fianza será devuelta si se cumple con las condiciones, como abandonar el país dentro del plazo o no usar la visa antes de su vencimiento.
