Hi,
I need one advice.
I have a sponsor (consultancy company) who insists that after applying h1B visa (in April 2016) and once my petition is approved (i.e. selected in lottery) I should visit USA on my B2 visa (which is valid till May 2017) and try to get clients/job there. Once I get a job there, he then wants to file to "make amendments to change my B2 to H1B".
Q1) I am a little scared. Is this illegal?
Q2) If I do as he says, and go to USA on B2 once my H1b petition is approved, then wont the immigration officer come to know about this and question me and stop me?
I dont want to spoil my chances of visiting USA even as a visitor because my entire family is there.
Please if someone is aware about this process, do let know its pros & cons.
Thanks.
