A valid visa possibly but not one valid for the type of work they are doing, which would have required an H1B. The article doesn’t seem to address this head on.

- AnotherGoodName 1y agoDid you read the leaked memo specifically ‘he has not violated his visa’ part? Its right there in the link the parent gave. As in they had a visa and ice acknowledged no violation of the terms of that visa in very plain english.
- SilverElfin 1y agoI can’t really evaluate or trust that part - it’s a redacted quote from some unspecified doc from an unspecified source. My point is that building factories generally requires a different visa because ESTA and also B1 have many restrictions. The fact that it says B1/B2 in there undermines its credibility - one is a travel visa not a work one, and it doesn’t make sense to mention them interchangeably.
- klausa 1y agoMy B1/B2 visa literally says B1/B2 on it. I have stamps from the US border that literally say B1/B2 on them. If anything is undermining anyone's credibility here, it is not the article doing that.
- bialpio 1y ago"In practice, the two visa categories are usually combined and issued as a "B-1/B-2 visa" valid for a temporary visit for either business or pleasure, or a combination of the two." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B_visa https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B_visa There's also a picture of such a visa.
