CanuckInUSA 0 #1 December 21, 2004 Well it's official. Yesterday I successfully obtained another NAFTA TN-1 work visa to commence working as a software engineer for a new company come January 4th, 2005. But I must confess that the INS gave me my one and only "get out of jail for free" card as I was in violation of my old visa since I did not leave the USA after I was laid off of my old job back in November. I took the gamble that the INS and IRS weren't in tune with each other and I was wrong. The INS knew I was out of work when it came time to applying for the new visa yesterday. I think the only thing that saved me was that: 1) I was qualified for the job. 2) I was honest once they started asking me questions. 3) It is so close to the holiday season. So I'm going to have to work harder and post less once I start this new job. And while I would never marry anyone just for the sake of getting a Green Card, are there any single women out there who are interested in tolerating a relationship with a skydiver, BASE jumper and Ground Launcher who wants to move to the Denver area and marry me? I didn't think so. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #6 December 21, 2004 I was supposed to marry someone at last year's Eloy Holiday Boogie, but didn't (it was one of those joke scam Green Card marriages). So will you be at this year's Holiday Boogie? Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
