18 Year Old - Seeking U.S Employment
 
Basically, I have been talking to this girl from Colorado for a few years, I left my secondary school in 2011 and had a gap year and then went to college. I left college due to a serious bereavement which unfortunately affected all of my studies indirectly so I was just going to go back again however;

My friend from the U.S said she could maybe get her boss to vouch for me on a green card and I could get a job where she works and permanently work there. How viable is this and could somebody give me steps to which I should advance on?

Thanks, Tom.

Hi Tom and welcome to the forum :) Thanks for introducing yourself in the Welcome Inn.

If you follow the link below, it will take you to the USA section of the forum. It's quite a lively area with lots of helpful folks to answer your questions. You will see that there is a sub-section entitled US Immigration and Visas. That may be of interest to you.

Also, here is a Wiki that you need to read through. Suffice to say that it's a lot more complicated and difficult than having a company "vouch for" you.

welcome to BE...but realistically, it's marriage or student visa or it's not happening for a rather long time.
