If I want to go to USA (America), how can I go?

If you want to go to the USA (America) — then first you need to know why you are going:

For work, for study, for travel, or for permanent residence (Green Card)?

Depending on this purpose, the type and process of visas are different. Below I will explain everything in simple language

1. If you want to go for travel (Travel / Visit)

Visa type: B1/B2 (Tourist/Business Visa)

Conditions:

* There must be sufficient money in the bank account (proof must be provided)

* Proof of return to your country (family, work, property, etc.) must be shown

* You must present yourself confidently in the interview

Process:

1. Fill out the DS-160 form (online)

2. Submit the visa fee ($185)

3. Get an interview date at the US Embassy

4. Give an interview with your passport, photo, bank statement, proof of work/business

If you get a visa, you can stay from 6 months to 1 year.

2. If you want to go for studies

Visa type: F1 (Student Visa)

Things to do:

1. Get admitted to a SEVP-accredited university/college in the US

2. They will give you an I-20 Form

3. Submit SEVIS Fee and Visa Fee

4. Fill out the DS-160 form and give an interview

You will need:

* Academic record (SSC, HSC, Graduation)

* IELTS/TOEFL score

* Bank statement (at least 20–25 lakh taka)

3. If you want to go for work

Visa type: H-1B (Skilled Job Visa)

Conditions:

* You must be offered a job by a company in the US

* That company will sponsor your H-1B

You can first build a good profile by doing Freelancing/Remote Work.

Then contacting the company increases your chances of getting a sponsor.

4. If you want to go permanently (Green Card / Immigration)

Three main ways:

1. DV Lottery (Diversity Visa) – Applications are accepted in October-November every year (free).

2. Family Sponsorship – If you have relatives in the United States.

3. Employment Sponsorship – If a company sponsors.

DV Lottery is the easiest and most popular way.
