  1. San Francisco in California? If so seems an odd choice with those requirements.
  2. Then you need to focus on the 10%
  3. AWA related cases are not really DIY, Lawyer time.
  4. UEFA A?, must admit I have no clue how they operate in Canada. Anyway if a Uni is offering you a job then they will sort out the visa, a job without a visa is meaningless. The other people to ask is your Agent. The guys I have met have been working for soccer camps, one stayed, found a USC to marry.
  5. DENVER — The ongoing migrant crisis is estimated to cost the City of Denver $180 million in 2024, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston said. Johnston announced that updated number during the weekly mayor-council meeting Tuesday evening, adding that the $180 million figure represents about 10%-15% of the entire general fund budget for the year. Last week, he estimated the cost to be around $160 million. https://www.denver7.com/news/local-news/migrant-crisis-to-cost-denver-at-least-180-million-in-2024 Top news item, 5 minutes. Wonder if Denver will get a clue.
  6. I am in Colorado and it is mainly a summer gig. If you are looking for something more permanent then best to ask the University what they propose. What are your qualifications?
  7. The coaches I have met have been on a J1.
  8. There could well be Cartels involved, this story mentions the CBPOne app and assistance is provided booking an appointment, claiming asylum, presumably they may have a way of harvesting appointments like people do for B applications. And the new Biden policy includes EAD in a month.
  9. There is always a risk, they might wonder how you are able to visit for so long, what you do.
  10. Pretty simple for most people, this is after all a DIY site. We have a mega thread about visiting when a case is in process, very rare for normal visits to cause a problem. I visited a few times when waiting. The problem cases I see is where people are looking to immigrate on a tourist visa, have a history of very long visits or some other specific problem.
  11. I would imagine most go for a Tourist or Student visa first, that would seem the cheapest option and then just get a regular one way ticket. Now some nationalities are good to fly into Mexico, Russians seem to go to Cancun and then fly north. Just for example and that has to be the simplest route, book a week vacation and then change your mind. I am reminded of the Indian family the froze to death walking in from Canada, I think in that case they had sold up everything and borrowed from extended family for the trip, it was seen as an investment. The numbers the Guardian quoted do seem high however. But then how much would be a fake marriage or E2 or EB5 etc and now is a good time. I do not know if it is the case here but some operate on a deposit basis and you pay the balance once you get here and are working.
  12. As mentioned a K1 is single entry and has been used.
  13. I think you can do it the other way, no expert on the Canadian side of things.
  14. Seems a lot, OK there are limited operators to choose from and it is effectively a one was transit, they are not going to get much business flying back. Maybe freight? Perhaps the numbers vary according to the extent of the package? Could include everything, US Lawyer fees etc.
  15. I thought this deserved its on thread, and it is from a very Progressive source but sort of explains a lot of the issues. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/jan/01/france-detained-plane-nicaragua-us-migrants-crisis Quite fascinating the sheer number of persons involved, this is big business and they charge.
  16. Short notice of position relocation – A U.S. citizen petitioner, living and working abroad, has received a job offer in or reassignment to the United States with little notice for the required start date. Discretion The list of examples provided above is not exhaustive. DOS may exercise its discretion to accept local Form I-130 filings for other emergency or exceptional circumstances of a non-routine nature, unless specifically noted below. However, such filings must be truly urgent and otherwise limited to situations when filing with USCIS online or domestically with an expedite request would likely not be sufficient to address the time-sensitive and exigent nature of the situation. DOS may consider a petitioner’s residency within the consular district when determining whether to accept a filing, but it is not required.[6] https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-6-part-b-chapter-3 I read it that Frankfurt could, they have fairly wide discretion, still think it is a major ask and have never seen it actually happen.
