Hi All,
For the past few years I've been visiting customers in the States 3 or 4 times a year using the ESTA visa with no problem. We have a new project launching there and the client has asked me to allow for working locally one week in each month for the first year. I run my own IT business. The activities over there are really no more than hand holding and demonstrating our commitment to, and importance of the project by making the principal available.
Uuurgh! Not very palatable but it's a good deal. Do you think it's permissible to do this sort of travel using ESTA, or would another visa be required?
This is based in North Orange County. When I'm there infrequently I usually stay at an Embassy Suites which is dated but ok. For such regular visits I'm wondering if there's anything better, and more apartment than hotel like in the area? Would it be crazy to look at buying something there?
Cheers,
Steve
