Re: Where to start people?
There is no visa type that matches your skill set. You can both enter the DV lottery if you were both born in NI.
Infinitely long... until such time as you're eligible for a visa.
Not without a sponsor, no.
Only if you want your partner to get a derivative visa.

How long would a visa take? 2-3 yrs?
What is the deal with a green card, would my partner and I be able to apply for 1?
Would I have to get married to my partner first prior to applying for a Visa?

I think S. Ireland is eligible.

I thought it was called the Irish Visa?
Anyway there are certain things I do not get.
Archeology Degree requires a certain amount of self discipline, ability to research etc. Would that not also suggest the ability to do a modicum of research about its ability to be a gateway to US Immigration?
The last time I looked the major sponsoring companies were in IT and Indian.
Archaeology, well somebody must have been sponsored, probably by a Uni.

First time I've looked at the US section - very interesting and very informative.
If the DV lottery doesn't work out might be looking at an E2 so founds loads of info tonight!
(Also now know not to start up a pool cleaning company)

Re: Where to start people?
Why do you have to move to Minnesota? Perhaps there are archeological sites in more remote areas of the USA? Perhaps you can do some further degree work in the USA as a stepping stone? Perhaps a university will sponsor you to do archeological research on a J-1 visa? If I were you, this is probably where I'd start looking...

What kind of archaeology?
Dinosaurs= Montana area (I think)
Native American= basically anywhere in the US
Has he thought about getting a master's and becoming faculty somewhere?

Re: Where to start people?
Dinosaurs are paleontology (the study of ancient life), not archeology. Archeology is the study of ancient human cultures.
