Default Relocating in US and working as a pilot

Hi, I'm 28 years old and I'm from South Korea. Got my CPL the last year. I went to the flight school in Texas in 2020 and started my flight. Currently 200 hours flight time.

Now I came back to South Korea and prepare to go back to Texas and get permanent residence. For now, I'm willing to go to college in the US(probably computer science major, or aviation maintenance) and get my student VISA back, work in a factory or in a restaurant for 2 years, and get permanent residence. There are many guys who are working as a CFI without working permission so they stuck in a flight school for several years, I've seen it. So I want to deal with my working status first.

Is there anyone from outside of the US who works in the US as a pilot? I want to hear how did you deal with the VISA here.

There are a lot of colleges with aviation programs which means you could instruct there while studying for your degree.
University of North Dakota being one of them:
