At this time Upwardly Global is unable to accept any visa that is contingent on your or your spouse’s existing employment by a U.S. company or government agency; any visa that is temporary and does not include work authorization, such as a student, tourist, or transit visa. If you hold one of these visas but are already in the process of applying for asylum, choose “Asylum” on the UpGlo application.
