I am in India and I have a valid H1B visa in my passport. My employer in the U.S. does not have any work for me. Can I enter using my H1B visa to find a project to work on?
06 Jan 2022Answer
No, a person may not enter the U.S. in H1B status in order to look for a project (or a job). To enter in H1B status, one generally must be coming to the U.S. in order to work based on an approved H1B petition. (06.Jan.2022)
