No, the F1 visa is not considered an immigrant visa. It is a non-immigrant student visa specifically for international students who want to study full-time at a US-approved college, university, or language school. It does not grant permanent residency and requires you to maintain a student status.

What is a difference between f1 visa and student visa?

The F1 visa is a specific type of non-immigrant student visa issued by the United States for individuals pursuing academic studies or language training programs at accredited U.S. institutions. In general, a student visa is a broader term used globally to refer to any visa granted for educational purposes in a foreign country. While all F1 visas are student visas, not all student visas are F1—different countries have their own versions, such as the Tier 4 visa in the UK or Subclass 500 in Australia. The key difference lies in the country-specific policies, requirements, and rights (like work permissions) attached to each. Ask ChatGPT
