Hi,
I have a friend who is staying in the Boston area working for an agency called Au-Pair in America.
She was put in rematch meaning that they need to find her another family for her to work in a period of 2 weeks... if not she will be sent back to her home country.
I would like to know if there are any alternatives for me as an american citizen to help her? - She currently holds a J1 visa but from the research that I found online... if the agency no longer works with her they will notify homeland security and remove her visa which will make her an illegal alien.
I need to find out if a J1 aupair visa could be transferred to a different visa and if it could be done what do I need to do? also would she be able to stay here in the states legally while the paperwork is pending?
If anyone has any advice on what I should do - please let me know.
Thanks,
-A
