I used RapidVisa for my petition; a paperwork service. A K1 is $375.00 to use their hassle-free online application system.

Hi all,

I found this forum useful. I am new to US...in Washington DC, looking for a career in IT. I have worked in Malaysia, Qatar and other countries in same field. I moved here under DV lottery scheme, so suggest me best way to land in an IT career here in DC.

DC can be a bit tricky, since the majority of their tech jobs/ IT contractors work with the US government and require a high level security clearance which is not available to green card holders but only to US citizens. If you don't have responsibilities in DC I suggest you try other cities/states.
