Re: do you think?
I can not imagine all employees of all large shipping companies are required to have a US Visa.
Might be a good idea to have a back up plan.

That's a huge risk. Obviously, if the visa isn't granted, you're SOL. Now might be a good time to think up of a plan B.

Re: do you think?
If you had a F-1 D/S on your I-94 and you left months after you left school, then you are not nor have you been out of status unless and until a immigration judge or an adjudicating officer has made that determination.
but theres a question on visa form which says have you ever violated terms of your visa? and some ppl even told me NO even tho i think the answer is yes.they say if you werent found to be in violation then the answer is NO . and they say they cant deny my visa bcuz of the "violation" but they can deny my visa bcuz of potential immigration intent-i own a house,have fam and gf...

As well as those that might need to leave the ship to get transport to another area of the US to board another vessel.

Re: do you think?
a) There is a difference between thinking positively and thinking realistically. They aren't mutually exclusive.
b) I am sure many people get rejected C1s, even without any prior poor immigration records. You have a serious violation.
c) You can't immigrate on a c1-d.

The answer to that is a definite maybe - but only if you apply.
I can also tell you that the answer to the ultimate question about Life, the Universe and everything is 42.
Hope that helps.

That's not correct. He would be out of status as soon as he dropped out of school, but he would not start accruing unlawul presence for the purpose of a ban until the date an immigration judge or other immigration made the determination he was out of status.

And now you want to know if you will get a C1/D visa, despite the fact that you have violated the terms of an F1 visa in the past. (Yes, i have read your nonsense in other threads here and elsewhere)

Re: do you think?
Sorry if that is not what I said? So if his visa ended on 1/11/10 and the court found him out of status on 12/13/10 and he left the next day, he would have only had one day of overstay.
In other words, while he has a D/S in his passport and although his visa is finished, he is not in overstay until it has been decreed. I still don't see where you are saying I'm wrong.
PS since no one has decreed him as being in overstay, then he wasn't.
