Does anyone know of anyone who has had success getting a VISA this way? If a person wanted to hire a nanny this way, is it likely that they would grant the VISA, or is it a waste of time and $$? Any wisdom?
Thanks!

I was told unless there are children under seven or an elderly person 75 or older it is just about impossible. The paperwork is massive and you almost agree to be totally responsible for the person while he/she is in the USA. Also there is, I believe, a two-year limit on the work visa with no ententions.
