Hi Guys, I am new to this forum so please bear with me. I am currently visiting friends in the USA on a B1 B2 visaand have the opportunity of employment, could some please explain to me how my prospective employer goes about filing for a H2B visa to enable me to obtain an SSN and take up employment?

B1 B2 visa to H2B

The employer must do all the paperwork, pay a lot of fees, state why they can't find anybody in the US who could do that job. There are yearly caps of how many can be issued. A new application year opens in April and most try to get them in the first day because often more apply than visas available. Sometimes they fill up the first few days. Meanwhile you cannot overstay your tourist visa...
Sorry, I don't know the very details of filing for H2B
