Ever heard of a person in the US on work visa having to legally change their name to name of their sponsor?

Last name change to name of their work sponsor. Person says their attorney recommended it. Sounds crazy to me.

I doubt a person on a work visa can even legally change their name in the US. This sounds like a scheme to hide someone from INS.

One of the guests who stays at the hotel I work at is an International Law attorney. I say this question and I just had to ask him. He said there is no way an attorney would have recommended that.

Uh no. Only thing I have heard like that was when slaves were given the last names of their masters.
