Which term describes a person who enters a country on a temporary visa?

• A. Citizen
• B. Visa holder
• C. Undocumented immigrant
• D. Refugee/asylee

Answer: (B)

Describing someone who enters on a temporary visa centers on holding a document that authorizes entry for a limited purpose and time. The person who carries that visa is a visa holder—they have permission to enter under that specific visa and are expected to depart or change status when the visa ends. This fits the scenario because it emphasizes the temporary, permission-based nature of their entry. It differs from a citizen, who is a full member with ongoing rights; from an undocumented immigrant, who lacks lawful status; and from a refugee or asylee, whose status comes from protection claims rather than a temporary visa. Keep in mind that if someone overstays or violates visa terms, their status can change, potentially moving them out of the visa holder category.
