Can a uk citizen work in usa without a visa?

No. That's highly illegal. You need an H type visa. You find a job first, then the employer has to be willing to sponsor you for the H visa. They will get it for you. Most employers (except high tech) don't bother with this. Some high tech won't do it any more either. They all did during the boom, but I think it's about 50/50 since the bust.

Employment Authorization

U.S. employers must check to make sure all employees, regardless of citizenship or national origin, are allowed to work in the United States. If you are not a citizen or a lawful permanent resident, you may need to apply for an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) to prove you may work in the United States.

USCIS issues Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) in the following categories:



EAD: This document proves you are allowed to work in the United States.
Renewal EAD: You should apply for a renewal EAD six months before your original EAD expires.
Replacement EAD: This document replaces a lost, stolen, or mutilated EAD. A replacement EAD also replaces an EAD that was issued with incorrect information, such as a misspelled name.
Interim EAD: If USCIS does not approve or deny your EAD application within 90 days (within 30 days for an asylum applicant; note: asylum applicants are eligible to file for EADs only after waiting 150 days from the date they filed their properly completed original asylum applications), you may request an interim EAD document.

only illlegally. it goes for all citizens, but technically you have to have a working visa and they issue a ss number to you so you pay in. even foreignors with student visas are not supposed to work.
