    Hi,

    My dad has B2 for 10 years, but he wants to work over here. is there any way to convert B2 as work permit visa. Pl. advice.Thanks.

    P.S: he can work only as labour, not skilled worker.

    Not at all possible as per the law. Having that intent to work while travelling on B2 is illegal as well.

    I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.

      Most work visas require degrees and highly skilled labor. So that is a NO-NO.

          Plain and simple, illegal unless they have authorization from USCIS for doing so. (DV lottery GC, Citizens sons/daughters that applied for GC for them, granted asylum for some political reason etc)
