Pakistani, regardless of age, whose B1\/B2 visas are valid or have expired within the last 48 months are eligible to avail of this offer. Earlier, Pakistanis, 45 years and older, were eligible to participate in this program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applicants, in order to know if they are eligible or not, may visit United States Mission in Pakistan\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
