Re: Offer of a job

You are not allowed to work in the United States without work authorization. These days, doing so puts both you and your employer at risk. If you want to accept the job, then you will have to raise the issue of sponsorship with your prospective employer. If he agrees to sponsor you, then I recommend contacting an attorney to discuss sponsorship options.
