1. Join the kaplan course for step 3 and apply for change of status to student visa.
2.Start volunteering in a research lab, get good references and look for a research job where you can get sponsored for an H-1b.
3.Get married to a US citizen.

Thanks for answering my question.

Which jobs are considered as Research Jobs? Any Web Sites to find these jobs?

Research assistant is a common position that only requires a bachelor's degree. Usually it is a low down position for a doctor but it is a good place to start if you do not have any research experience and are looking for a work visa.
The best strategy is to go visit the volunteering depts./webisites of the hospitals in your area and volunteer in a research lab for a few months. Once they know you
they might even be willing to sponsor you for an H-1b for a position in the same lab.

Also, Yahoo hotjobs is one site where you can find jobs by typing 'research assistant' as a keyword.

to sponsor my doctor brother for B1 or not?

hi!

You seem to be really knowledgable.
hi all!

Here is my question -

I am on h1b. My 485 is pending - 140, EAD etc approved. I own a house. couple of years ago I had sponsored my parents for visitors visa successfully - they have 10 yrs multiple entry visa.

My younger brother who is about to finish his MD/MS in India. He has taken step1. He is planning to come here for his CS exam.

Would you recommend that I sponsor him or he shows parents assets etc? He will stay with me. I will bear his expenses.

He is plans to apply for the visa before graduating (MD) so he can show the "strong" ties - that he would have to go back to finish his degree.

Please advice - thanks in advance!
