[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, Our babysitter overstayed her visa, and we're thinking of sponsoring her to get her legal status. Would be interested to know if anyone has ever done this, and hear your positive/negative experiences, cautions, etc. Thanks in advance.[/quote] OP, if you are a U.S. national, I don't believe that there IS a way for you to sponsor her. Your best bet is to speak to an immigration attorney, but I have at one point researched this pretty thoroughly, and I don't believe there is a way to do what you want. Employer-sponsored visas and green cards are typically procured by companies, not individuals. The only visa-ed nannies here are those employed by diplomats (A visa) and employees of international organizations (G visa). Sorry. You could always see if anyone is willing to marry her. Au pairs, I believe, need to come from overseas, you can't convert them to the au pair status while they are in the U.S.[/quote]
