British Citizens can work in USA?

[Indurthi]

Hi Team, Is British citizen can directly work in USA ? My friend has British Citizenship and he is now planning to move USA. Can you please  help suggest possible options to work here and what is the best approach to settle in USA?

Also will he comes under UK country quota(Country of birth: INDIA) when he applies for Green Card (OR) country of birth still takes part here?

No. He needs a work visa like everybody else.

For the GC, country of birth matters for the quota.

Maybe talk to an attorney if he has long term plans to settle in US.

He will be counted under India as his country of birth is India.

The country of birth controls priority dates. As for the rest,
