P3 Visas (Artists and Entertainers under Culturally Unique Programs)

The P3 visa is generally issued for the period of time necessary to complete the event, activity, or performance usually not exceeding one year. Thereafter, the USCIS may authorize extension of stay in increments of one year to complete the same event for which you entered the U.S. You may receive one-year extensions as long as the performance of the event continues.
