M-1 or B1 Visa for type rating?
Have a job offer which requires doing a type rating in the US. The airline does their own in-house training using their training captains. The problem is they are not accredited with SEVP, although the simulators that are hired are accredited.
What happens if the simulator company don't want to issue a I-20 Form as they are not doing the training, and the airline can't issue one either as they are not SEVP accredited.
My question is, can the type rating be done on a B1 visitors visa, since it's not possible to get a M-1 visa, or is training out of the question then?
