If the company which hired her does not pay for her transportation from her country to the city of her new job, she might not have a legitimate job here. There are "body shops" which get H1-b visas (illegally and/or fraudulently, it should be noted), make the people pay their way here, and then they are "benched" and unpaid until the body shop finds a company to contract that worker. There is no way anyone other than the employer or employee can or will pay for the transportation -- laws against "trafficking," "transporting," etc. If she thinks it is a legitimate job, she has to get her own ticket. But she should seriously reconsider this "job offer" and "visa." These are questionable circumstances.
