Aliens with C-2 nonimmigrant status can perform which of the following activities?

• A. Obtain employment with a U.S. employer
• B. Extend their stay
• C. Transit to the United Nations Headquarters
• D. Change their immigration status

Answer: (C)

Individuals with C-2 nonimmigrant status are specifically designated as aliens in transit to the United Nations Headquarters. This status allows them to travel to New York City for the purpose of engaging in meetings or activities related to the UN. The C-2 classification supports their transit needs without the requirement of a visa for travel to the United States.

The option regarding obtaining employment with a U.S. employer is not applicable to C-2 nonimmigrants, as this status does not grant the ability to work. Similarly, extending their stay and changing their immigration status are not permitted under this classification, which is strictly for transit purposes and has a defined duration aligned with their specific travel needs. Thus, the focus for C-2 aliens remains on their transit to the UN Headquarters.
