Visa Waiver to L2
OH colleague has L1 visa but the company did not apply for visa for his wife (long story!) and she has been entering USA on visa waiver. Rather than keep doing this (and I suppose risk being turned back at POE) the wife now wants visa.
Can she easily be added to his application? Can this be done while she is in USA? Will processing times be similar to original application? And will she need to stay in USA until the application is approved?
Thank you!

Re: Visa Waiver to L2
Can she easily be added to his application? -- Yes.
Can this be done while she is in USA? -- No, especially not off of a VWP entry.
Will processing times be similar to original application? -- Hopefully shorter unless she hits an issue.
And will she need to stay in USA until the application is approved? -- No, she'll need to leave the US to apply for the visa.
