Follow-up question Lucy, It is my understanding that an au pair cannot get a "work permit" or I guess it is a H-1 visa for employment in child care, but instead must be sponsored by an employer in a more skilled field. Is that correct? Otherwise why would anyone have an illegal nanny working...

My Colombian au pair who is finishing her second (legal) year on a J-1 visa is desperate to stay in the US. What are her options (with or without me)? Thanks for any advice.
