he came with a visitor visa of 1 year but stayed 3 years then he applied to the World Bank while he was illegal here and he was hired. the world asked him to go back to apply for his visa in his country of origin and the bank to send the paper to the embassy so that it has an international worker visa but I wondered if the fact of being illegally will allow him to come back here with his visa to use international. here is the story

No. He has a 10 year ban for overstaying his tourist visa.

I know a number of people who have worked/still work for the IMF and World Bank in DC, and I am not aware of any dispensation that allows their employees to circumvent usual US immigration rules. But the right people to ask to confirm that is the department within the WB that deals with employee visas.

And sounds exactly like he won't for quite a long, long time.

thanks for answer because we thought that they can make exception with that kind of visa specially when the organisation send a paperwork to the ambassy

He was in the US illegally, I assume working illegally all that time also... if you're truly a "good friend" you should have told your friend he's committing a crime. 

 

And now he's facing consequences.

He broke the law and then you guys thought someone will make exceptions for him? Really?

But why?  He has already overstayed on one nonimmigrant visa, so why would he be issued another?  He has demonstrated he is high risk for overstay by doing so.

I assume he also did not tell the world bank when he applied that he was in the US unlawfully? I doubt they would have even bothered to talk anymore to him let alone pay money and time to get paperwork together for something that will merely get denied.

Did he tell the world bank guys he was here illegally? Was that the reason they asked him to apply from home? Or did he not mention it and that is just how they do things?

 

he has to declare his overstay on his visa application. 

 

I know from my friends that generally there is no discretion on G4 (not like say H1 or L visa), if the WB etc says the job is there they can’t question that and must issue the visa, but I don’t know if (and to be honest I don’t think ) that is enough to overcome an entry ban to the US.

Something doesn’t sound right here.  I would be surprised if the World Bank would be so casual about petitioning potential employees as “you gonna need a sponsor, bud?”

[Ben&Zian 4,397]

They didn't ask, more like he did not 'disclose' his situation as they would have turned him away quickly.
