a visas

The A non-immigrant visa classification is reserved for diplomatic employees and dependents (i.e., spouse and unmarried children under age 21; unmarried children under age 23 who are full time students at post-secondary educational institutions; unmarried children of any age who are physically or mentally disabled and cannot care for themselves). Dependents may not be employed. 

Eligibility for the A visa requires existence of a formal bi-lateral agreement or an informal de-facto agreement between the U.S. and the foreign country, and the principal alien must be a national of that country. 

 Assignment to U.S. may not exceed three years and the proposed employment may not be listed on the U.S. Department of Labor's "Schedule B", and cannot be a job for which there is an oversupply of qualified U.S. workers in the area of intended employment.
