Hi Peter, Thank you so much for doing this.

I just moved to the USA as J2-Dependant. I have already submitted form I-765 to get a work permit (EAD) but this can take between 3 and 4 months. A European company that just opened an office in the USA would love to hire me but might not want to wait that long. Is there anyway to speed up the process by them sponsoring me?



There would have to be a visa that you qualify for that the company could sponsor you for, such as an O-1 or a country-specific visa, but given how long such a process likely would take, even if you qualified for another visa, you probably wouldn't get it much faster than the J-2 work card.
