I am currently in a relationship with someone I met through work. We both work for Citi. He works at Citi and I work in a company owned by Citi.
I'm living in India and he in the U.S. We are in love for a while now (I have been to the U.S. already on a B1 Visa) but am now planning to move there so we can live together.
My prob is :
1) I have to get a job there or go on my B1 visa and then job hunt there. I don't know what is the best way to do this. Change my visa to an H1 (meaning I need a job there beforehand, which is pretty difficult to get) or just go on a B1 and take a chance, job hunting
2) If I apply for a H1 visa, will my B1 get cancelled?
3) How can I find a sponsor for my H1 fast and where do I find one. I don't need my sponsor to finance my trip, I can do that myself, just need to show a sponsor for a job per the info I've got so far
4) How do I get through all these obstacles within 2 months
5) My boyfriend and I do not want to get married right away, so a K1 visa is out of question, are there other ways?
Please help me. I'm so stressed out with all the information and no fixed advice or facts..
