US Visitor visa for Foreign domestic worker

[bijalgaurav]

Hi,

I am Singapore citizen and planning to travel USA in August17 to my relative for family function. Since myself and my son are Singapore Citizen we don't required visa but we have got ESTA approvals. My husband is Indian Citizen and permanent resident of Singapore and he has also applied and got US visa.

Now, the issue is I am planning to bring my foreign domestic worker (care taker) to*USA with us. We have applied for the visa for her but the embassy is asking us to provide the Domestic worker agreement as per the US laws and regulations with minimum wages of the state in USA we are planning to travel. I have employed my care taken for two years in Singapore as per the Singapore law and have signed employment agreement as per Singapore law but Embassy asking to sign the contact as per USA law and regulation. Does this mean I need to pay my care taker salary in USA while she is traveling with us for leisure trip to USA?

You help is greatly appreciated on this matter.

Yes, the arrangement must meet US labor laws (and that of the states that you are visiting) for the duration of the trip

So how do I pay her for the amount agreed as per agreement? Do I need to pay while in USA or in Singapore after trip. I read somewhere that only sheet signed by employer an employee is not enough..you need to provide proof of money transferred an also employer should not have access to those account.....but I have opened account with my fdw in joint with bank for Giro payment purpose.

Your advise is appreciated.

Thank.
