Coming to America! (1 Viewer)

[sparse]

I have a mate wanting to go to America, does anyone know stuff about Visas? requirements? the lenght of time it takes to get em and that type of thing? and weather you can get other Visas after each other? and generally the whole Green Card System.

actually, they're doing another one of those visa lotteries very soon, it was in the ir times yesterday. maybe ring the embassy

alternatively.. just look for a job in the city you want to live in.. and apply for it.. and possibly get it.. and get them to get a work visa for you. i know it sounds like a long shot, but i know a guy who did it (he's an actor in a theatre company)..

I worked in New York three times illegally. It's not hard to do. You'd be amazed how well an illegal english speaking white person gets paid. Oh....maybe not. Thats the thing. Irish people get jobs no matter wah. But a legal way to do it is, apply for the job online and say you'd like to get an apprenticeship or be trained in. Some places will pay for your visa and training etc. if they think you've got somethin to offer. Or if you've got a cousin or relative who is a US citizen, all you gotta do is fill out a form. Or, you could apply shoe polish to yer face and neck, put on a Punjab accent and say you wanna be a cab driver. "Yezzir twendie nined sdreed, dis is shord cut, trusd mee".

in fairness though - the grammar - what sort of idiot wrote these questions:

what country have you been born in?
what country has your wife/husband been born in?

Only about 150 people from Ireland got green cards last year! Best of luck.
