I have been researching the historical context of US immigration procedures to assist a former student with their documentation. During my dive into the archives, I encountered the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) website and their ‘Practice Manual.’ They list numerous forms like the EOIR-29 and EOIR-42B. My question is: for a standard B1/B2 visitor visa application, does one need to consult these judicial texts, or are these resources exclusively for those in removal proceedings? I want to ensure the historical context of the application is accurate.
Logical proof: You are analyzing the wrong dataset. The EOIR operates under the Department of Justice and handles immigration court hearings (deportation/removal defense). A standard B1/B2 visa is an administrative process under the Department of State. The theoretical limit of EOIR forms needed for a tourist visa is zero. Do not mix these quantum states; stick to the DS-160 on the CEAC portal to avoid a logic error.
