Re: Leasing/Financing a Car with Expiring H1B

Re: Car leasing with no credit history in US?

Talking of International Autsource...I'm working with them now to find a car.

Rant first and then a question...

Re: Living half here, half in the UK .. does anyone do this?

I'm currently living in St Andrews and there's no sign of Donald Trump...yet! A few more major hotels moving into the area, however, so who knows what will happen in the next few years!

Claiming back tax on a J1 visa

Hi everyone,

Apologies if this question has been asked before. I've had a good search, but can't seem to find the exact answer.

Re: California- J-1

Hi James,

Exciting times ahead for you!

When I was in California on a J1, I was told that I did not need a CA licence, as I wasn't a permanent resident. I checked with a number of people and...

Re: H1B cap full...any alternatives?

I may be wrong, but it looks like the extra quota for masters students is only for those with US masters. I am currently studying in the UK.

There is the chance that I may be able to work from a...

Re: H1B cap full...any alternatives?

Thank you so much - that's incredibly useful.

I'll talk to my employers and the lawyers about it. Fingers crossed that could be my way around it!

Re: H1B cap full...any alternatives?

Unfortunately, an L1 is no good for me, as I don't currently work for the employer.
