  • Enter the U.S. with B1/B2 visa for job interview purpose?

    I'm currently in the U.S., but have been out of status for a while (but the visa itself is still valid)

    Now I am trying to get a new job, and the only way to do this seems to be to leave the U.S. and re-enter.

    So here's my question:

    1. Is it possible to enter the U.S. with B1/B2 visa for a job interview purpose? (Provided that I can show proof of the job interview I got from the company) I'm specifically curious about what happens at the port of entry, since I already have a B1/B2 visa which is valid until 2018.

    2. If #1 is possible, is it possible to leave and immediately re-enter for job interview? How long should I stay outside of the U.S. to be safe?

    Visiting the US on B1/B2 for attending job interview is not appropriate purpose, especially when you are currently out of status.

      If you have overstayed, your visa is invalid. You will need to leave and apply for a new one abroad, though chances of being issued one are not as good.
