    Default Question about club raids/No Visa.. PLEASE HELP!!!

    As a UK girl wanting to come to America, I wonder how easy it is to be caught with no Visa? When they have the club raids, what exactly are they looking for? Do they ask to see everyone's ID/Documents etc? I'm guessing the raids are the only way of being caught? Any info is much appreciated thankyou.. X

    i believe they are usually looking for prostitution and drugs..there was a club near me that they went into and checked and made them let go of all the dancers who weren't allowed to be in the country though..i do know girls who get visas for other work and then strip. i'd be interested in knowing more about it too

    Your main issue will be finding a club willing to let you work for them illegally, much moreso than avoiding getting caught in a raid.

    Still, in the case of a raid (especially one over the liquor license), you will likely get carded to make sure you're of age, and by not having an American ID, you'll quickly be found out as an illegal worker. It's certainly quite a risk as you're unlikely to just get a slap on the wrist for it.

    Thanks for the info! I know of quite a few clubs I can work at (at my own risk) .. But yes, I guess you're right about being ID'd for your age and then getting found out.. I didn't even think of that! I wonder how often it happens? :/ Only way I could get a visa is if I had a 'Speciality' but unfortunately looking good in my underwear and rinsing Men does not count as one lol x

    Yeah, unfortunately the USA isn't too keen on handing out work visas for strippers! I'd say make friends with management so you can get tipped off if they're expecting a raid and can avoid the club until it passes. I'd also be extra vigilant during local elections/campaigning periods or when there's lots of hullaballoo about strip clubs in the local media. Also, come areas are much hotter for raids than others, so if they're not an uncommon occurrence in a certain area you have in mind, I'd avoid it.

    Ohhhhh.. So they clubs know when they are getting a raid? :/ That's not very sneaky! Lol. I was thinking of coming to Florida, maybe Miami? I can't believe how hard it is to get a Visa! Oh well, guess I'm going to have to marry a nice American Man x

    ^Not always, but sometimes management might suspect or have a "friend" who tips them off.

    ^That could work, but visas are mostly given to highly skilled workers.

    Yeah, there's a few things I could do, but I think you HAVE to have a job offer (sponsor) before you can even apply! And basically that sponsor has to prove that there is no one already in America that can do the job as good as you? x

    Exactly. It's VERY difficult to get a work visa for the USA. For dancers, working illegally is really the only way to do it.

    It took my friend 3 years to get her work Visa-- and she was married to a US Citizen (he was incarcerated). She STILL had to get sponsored in order to finally get that Visa.

    UK is actually not that simple either, though they at least offer a Work and Travel Abroad visa valid for up to 2 years for 18-30 year olds from Canada/Australia/New Zealand/a few other countries.
