A friend is coming to the US to visit from Kosovo on a B2 tourist visa.
They will have to go to Skopje, Macedonia to the US Embassy there for the visa interview.
Does anyone know what kind of questions they will ask?
My understanding is you are allowed to stay here for 3 months on the tourist visa-should they let them know at the consulate they want to stay the whole time?

Also-if they come on a tourist visa which is the best way for them while they are here to move toward US citizenship/immigration?-They have no relatives here.
 
They should not be coming to the US on a tourist visa with the intent to immigrate. They have no options since they do not qualify for family or employer based immigration.

If they receive a visa, the time they will be permitted to remain in the US will be determined at the border when they are admitted.

You and your friends all need to become more familiar with the visa and immigration process by reading trhe USCIS website
 
Your friend's only viable option, due to lack of information, is to find an employer that will sponsor him/her for an H-1B visa.

I spoke to an immigration attorney (on the phone) today.
They said that while in the US on a B2 that someone can apply to attend school and change the B2 to an F1 Visa.
Any insight into that?
Also, if someone needs more info to help please let me know exactly what kind of info you need.
Thank you all for your help.
