I'm an American citizen with an English boyfriend. We are trying to get him an H2-B worker's visa. Apart from the usual online resources, we are wondering if it wouldn't be better/simpler to bring him in on an extended stay visa and simply change his visa status while he's here. If we do go the work visa route, do we begin the process by finding someone who will sponsor him first? If so, what types of jobs would be his best bet? Thanks a bunch either way, the immigration process is very taxing and grueling!

Thanks for your incredible answer, I really do appreciate it and you! As for your question, he's 24 and able bodied with contracting experience, and tiling. He does computer maintenance and repairs (nothing commercial, just PC and laptop repair). He has no degree or official certification, but he's looking for work in whatever ways he can find it! We were hoping to get him into IT or doing some tiling but I don't even know if the H2-B form would cover those areas.

Ashcans posted:My guess is that the underlying motive here is that he would like to come out and see you, but you guys can't afford to bankroll a long-rear end unpaid trip? Yup, that's it exactly. We're shooting for a long term visit (a year +) while I finish up school, but we desperately need him to be working as well. Hospitality may be an excellent option, I'll look into some J-1 sites right away! Thank you!!
