Hi,
I m in new york with B2 visa ( expiration date 2020).
It’s my first time in US and in 1 week i have to go back to Italy ( expiry 6 months ).
On my passport in “visa type” is markerd R B1/B2, there is nt a specific reference about one tipe, than , during my vacation an italian fashion company contacted me for a job. They want try to come in US market and they asked me if i could work for them.
This is the question:
Can i get back in US with the same visa but using the B1 status, if in the first time i asked for a B2 and i used it ?
Thanks.
 
The types of "business" activities covered by a B-1 visa do not include actually living and working in the U.S. Be sure that the activities proposed qualify under the B-1 visa.
 
If the employer petition for US work visa, it adds more advantage rather than working in B-1 visa.
 
thanks...
yes i m italian,
i posted this question because i would'nt like to go to embassy again, it's far to my house.
but i m really scared, and i have to be sure, everyone know that immigration isn t soft if you do mistake, and i want to do everything according to the law.
are you pretty sure that i can ? =)
