Synopsis
In a good news for business or tourist visa — B-1, and B-2 — holders in the US, they can now apply for employment and appear in job interviews.
Are you in the US on a tourist or business visa? You can now apply for employment and even appear in job interviews on business or tourist visa — B-1, and B-2, news agency Press Trust of India (PTI) reported quoting US federal agency.
The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has tweeted saying that “Searching for employment” and “interviewing for a position” are allowed under B-1 or B-2.
The USCIS tweeted saying, “Many people have asked if they can look for a new job while in B-1 or B-2 status. The answer is, yes. Searching for employment and interviewing for a position are permissible B-1 or B-2 activities.”
Apart from this the USCIS stated that one must request to initiate the process for changing the status from B-1 or B-2 to employment authorized status.
The USCIS said, “Alternatively, if the change of status request is denied or the petition for new employment requested consular or port of entry notification, the individual must depart the U.S. and be admitted in an employment-authorized classification before beginning the new employment.”
