Re: Getting a FL driving licence, expiry date

My fees are paid for as part of my teaching assistantship so in state or out of state makes no difference to me.

Re: Getting a FL driving licence, expiry date

As I'll be studying, I believe the date on my I-94 will be replaced with D/S (Duration of study) which is basically as long as it takes me to complete. With this is mind are they then likely to go...

Re: Getting a FL driving licence, expiry date

It is, I didn't say it wasn't. My question was how long would it be valid for?

Re: Working on an F2

Another scenario; a friend of mine is a lecturer, he recently went on a holiday to the US and took a load of work out with him to mark while relaxing by the pool. Surely he isn't breaking the law by...

Re: International removals insurance costs

Based on the information I've been given by the removals company I would be covered if one box didn't turn up and would be able to claim for that one box. It's only damage to items within the box...

Re: Working on an F2

Surely it depends on where you do this payless work. Presumably the F2 restrictions mean you can't work in the US, but outside of the US shouldn't be a problem, eg if you're back in the UK for any...
