A Few Questions

Hi, I was curious about work visas. If your in the US on a tourist Visa from the UK are you allowed to work while your there....and if so and you want to stay longer then the 3 months allowed can you apply for a work visa. and OR can I sponser someone from the UK to come here and work like provide a home for and be finacially responsible if needed to ensure he can come.....Another question, When applying for the k1 on the I-134 form can both parties savings be included or is it just the sponsors?

Thanks in advanced ....

No you cannot work on a tourist visa. To get a work visa an employer has to sponsor the person. As for the last question if you can use both incomes for the K-1, I believe that they only look at the petitioners income, since the benficiary will not be working when they 1st enter the US until they recieve a work permit.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.

If the sponsor's income is not enough for the I-134, you can always get a co-sponsor for it. A co-sponsor has to be a US citizen.

A co-sponsor has to be a US citizen.

Or Permanent Resident.

And they have to have a domicile in the US.
