Generic Question about existing Visa

Post by FunkMaster » Wed Feb 01, 2012 4:22 pm

Hello All,

My wife and I both have an American Visa in our passports.

We both independently applied for an American Visa for work purposes and traveled on those Visa's (each separately, different times).

Both our Visa's show B1/B2 under the type.

From reading online, this means:

B1 = Business related - like a conference or training
B2 = Pleasure related - like a holiday

Just a dumb question really, but does this mean we can travel to the US for Pleasure when ever we want, or does the travel need to be Business and Pleasure combined?

Thanks in advance

Hi - it means you can travel to the US either for business or pleasure.
