Talla palstalla nayttaa usein olevan vierheellista tietoa aiheesta ettei Usaan voisi menna au-pairiksi ilman jarjestoa laillisesti, ja haluan oikaista asiaa ja samalla kehottaa kaikkia tutustumaan konsulaatin ohjeisiin sivulla http://helsinki.usembassy.gov/visas/nivaupair.htm
Eli: jos menet amerikkalaiseen perheeseen, voit menna vain jarjeston kautta, joka jarjestaa sinulle J1-viisumin. Sen sijaan, jos menet ei-amerikkalaiseen perheeseen (esim. suomalaiseen), jotka eivat ole amerikan kansalaisia, vaan esim. tyoskentelevat USA:ssa tyoviisumilla, et nimenomaan voi menna jarjeston kautta, vaan perhe jarjestaa sinulle B1-viisumin.
B1-viisumin saamiseksi on kuitenkin asetettu ehto: sinulla on oltava kokemusta lastenhoitotyosta entuudestaan 1-2 vuotta.

Non-Immigrant Visas: Au Pair Visas
There are two non-immigrant categories for persons wishing to enter the United States and work as an au pair/nanny/domestic. The J1, or "exchange visitor," visa is for a person who is going to au pair for an American family or a family with Legal Permanent Residence (LPR or "green card" holder) while the B1 visa is for a person who is going to au pair for a non-American family who will be in the United States temporarily on a non-immigrant visa.
To apply for a B1 visa as an au pair, applicants must provide the following:
- The documentation required for all visa applicants
- Evidence from employer of previous child care experience
- Evidence from employee of previous child care experience
- A work contract signed by both parties, which at a minimum includes the following elements:
Employer’s guarantee of the prevailing wage* for the employee
- Employer’s guarantee of free room and board for the employee
- Employer’s guarantee of initial and return/onward assignment travel expenses for the employee, even if the employee is terminated for any cause
- A statement that employer will be the only provider of employment to the employee while in the United States

eli tuo Employer’s guarantee of the prevailing wage* for the employee tarkoittaa, että on maksettava sijaintipaikkakunnan mukaista Child care workerin vähimmäispalkkaa.
Taitaa karsia useimmat suomalaisperheet pois.
Kyseisella B1-viisumilla on paljon au-paireja USA:ssa suomalaisissa perheissa, ja child care workerin palkkaa (joka osavaltiosta riippuen 5-8 dollaria tunti) maksetaan, joskin siita usein vahennetaan hiukan taydesta yllapidosta johtuvia kuluja - eli maksetaan esim. 5 dollaria tunti, 8 tuntia paivassa, tekee 200 dollaria viikossa - eli kaytannossa sama palkka kuin myos jarjestojen kautta silloin, kun au-pairilla on kokemusta lastenhoitajan tyosta entuudestaan.
