    Hi,

    I have a L1-B visa. If I come to US do I need to apply for a SSN even though I stay for 4 to 5 months.

    I am trying to understand if I apply for SSN do I need to pay tax or not required.

    As an L1-B holder, you must pay taxes no matter how long you stay in US. Apply for SSN, and file income tax return at year end.
