Hello All, I was wondering if anyone could provide info for moving to Los Angeles. I am a model/actress here in the UK and I have a base in LA I can move to instantly and I have funds saved also. My only thing is the visa. While in the US I applied to some talent agencies and they said they would like to represent me but they do not sponsor visas, but was told if I had a visa ready I could join anytime. My issue is what to do now and I was wondering if it adds any weight the fact that I have agencies that will take me on? I would appreciate any input. Thank you.

To obtain a work visa one must usually have an employer sponsor you for one. The agencies you have contacted do not sponsor.

Can you contact employers direct?

Apart from a work visa there are investment visas, and the O-1 visa for exceptional talent

You should repost in the US section for more information

Thank you for you reply SanDiegogirl. I didnt know there was another section to post. It would be great to find an agent to sponsor me but I am not sure if many do it now. I will have to research abit more...
