work permit
I want to know about that is, can I apply for the work permit without getting any job offer letter in America from India and come in America?

No, you need someone to offer you a job and that person needs to prove that there nobody else in the US that qualifies for that job, it is very difficult and takes 6 months for them to prove it (they have to post an ad on the city, etc…)

The easiest way to work for a company in India that could probably transfer you to America and that would be how you’d get a work visa

if I come to America lawfully and then, can I find a job or apply for a work permit in the United States?

if I visit United States with travel visa and don't want to come back to India and want to stay in America, is that possible and is it lawfull?

If you stay on a tourist visa and your stay expire, you will be unlawful in the country. You won’t be able to work because you will not have a work permit or a social security number. Therefore you will be deportable at any time. You can get a student visa, study in the US, change your student visa to a working visa IF a business sponsors you, and from then you can probably change that working visa to a green card in the future. But coming here on a tourist visa and overstaying your visa is unlawfully.

By all the details you are telling me here, you are not legible for any immigrant visa that would help stay in the United States lawfully for now, you should probably see your case with an immigration lawyer and see what are your options. But wanting to come to American just because you want, does not mean you can.

oh thank you very much for your time. it means that it is possible that I can change my student visa to work permit. and how much time it will take?

Like I said, you can, but only if a job will sponsor you, which is very difficult (most jobs will rather hire a citizen than a non citizen) and the job must be willing to sponsor you. You will probably need a Bachelors degree for the job and be a very skilled worker. It is possible, but not very easily done. The easiest way would be if you fall in love with a US Citizen while you’re studying here and then get married, it would take you from a Student Visa straight to Green Card without depending on a business to sponsor you. By the way, coming on a tourist visa and getting married as soon as you get here is also illegal.

Sanjoy KarmakarJan 17, 2022

you won’t get a work permit because a tourist visa does not qualify you for one. If you stay expires, you are illegally in the USA, if you go back to your country, you will have to wait 3 years to come back to US.

A Tourist visa does not qualify you for work.

if you come on a tourist visa, you are a tourist, a visitor, NOT a worker. if you want to work here, get a Worker Visa
