What are the requirements?
- You cannot receive any salary/remuneration from a U.S. company (other than reimbursement for expenses incidental to the stay in the U.S.)
- If the U.S. company has an office abroad, you can receive salary/remuneration from that foreign entity
- You must be employed by the foreign office, not by the US office
- You have to submit an approved Labor Condition Application
- You still have to show that the position in the U.S. is a specialty occupation
Please note that you can only stay in the US on this type of visa for up to 6 months (note that an H-1B visa is usually granted for 3 years and can be extended, so the B visa option is only for a short period of time).
