Hi! From a non-immigrant O visa (volunteer), is it possible to change the visa to a non-immigrant B and get a work permit? If yes, what would be the conditions and how long does the process generally take?
TLDR : Answer Summary
It is not possible to directly change a Non-Immigrant O visa (for volunteering) to a Non-Immigrant B visa. However, if you have a valid Extension of Stay for the O visa, you can cancel it and apply for an Extension of Stay based on employment. It's advisable to consult with your employer and Immigration before making any changes.
