Can I convert my B-1/B-2 Visa to a Work Visa?
If you are in the U.S. on a B Visa, then you can apply for a COS (change of status), from a B-1/B-2 Visa to a H1B Nonimmigrant Work Visa. Make sure that your Visa won’t be expiring before you apply and after that once you find a company in the U.S. willing to hire you, they must file the I-129 Nonimmigrant Worker Petition Form as the beneficiary.
