TRANSIT VISA IN US for a F1 visa holder [closed]
I have a F1 visa and I hold an Indian passport. I am going to the US for the first time. Do I need a transit visa while changing flights within the US?
Best Answer
An F-1 visa allows you to travel to the United States. If you are traveling to the US pursuant to your visa (i.e. to study), then you do not need a transit visa because you are allowed to enter the US at any port of entry. E.g. if you are studying in Seattle, you can arrive in the USA in New York with your F-1 visa and board a plane to Seattle there. If you are traveling outside of the window of the F-1 visa and just want to transit (e.g. travel from the UK to Japan with a transit in the USA), you probably need a transit visa.
