Re: ETA - Dual citizens must have valid UK passport

Its mind boggling that an organization that specializes in transporting people across international borders all across the world hasn't got this figured out. Especially BA with the number of routes...

Re: No more class II NICs for those living abroad

Got the letter. 185.50.
Will be lamenting the 'good old days' next year when it's 900+.

Re: No more class II NICs for those living abroad

Anyone heard anything regarding Class 3 contributions? I'm at 29 years, would be great to max that baby out over the next 6 years.

Re: Transferring from Canadian office directly to Green Card via EB2/3

Congrats, you're in the final step now. I was about 5 months between EAD/AP and final GC approval. This was 8 years ago however. Just a waiting game at this point. If you hit the 180 day mark...

Re: TV Antenna’s

This is exactly what I want to do. I've never even had cable at my current address. If it wasn't for the summer lightning storms being so severe i'd have done it already.

Re: GOP senator moves to end dual citizenship

It's also equally relevant/irrelevant to Americans. Though it is probably used interchangeably even though it is not the same thing. A Samoan is an example of an American national who is not a...

Re: GOP senator moves to end dual citizenship

This is the sort of policy that affects the rich and powerful as much as the rest of us. I expect there would be a lot of high level push back that, say the end of Class 2 NI contributions for...

Re: No more class II NICs for those living abroad

As already mentioned, I would still contribute at Class 3. The ROI is still insanely good.

Re: Travel on H1B

There's a multitude of 'kosher' reasons, like business travel. Be prepared for a 'why' question at the border of course. There's always a minute risk that the border could be shut while you are...

Re: Fare Evasion- TFL Bye law conviction 17(1)

Does 'got caught' mean 'arrested'? I think that's the question on a visa application. It's a good start that your ACRO comes back as No trace.

Re: Who can afford this

Re: Why do you want to go to the USA as a british person?

Weather (fits my lifestyle way better), job prospects, culture. I feel I can be the best version of me. (Whether that's true, i'll never know.)

Re: Applying again b1b2 after denied in 2919 for drug possession

Correct. Any foreign person entering in theory has to convince the officer that they do not intend to immigrate, except if on an immigrant visa, green card, or visa that allows for dual intent....

While illegal immigration is/appears to one of the big issues for either party, legal immigration is very much a side issue. The vast majority of Americans really have no understanding of how legal...

Re: Where to live in Ottawa but not too far from Montreal

Anywhere along the 417 between Ottawa and QC border always seemed nice. Definitely rural. And quite bilingual.

Re: Amex Global Transfer - Credit vs Charge Card Impact

Re: USA Exchange Programme with Police Caution (J1 Visa)

The ESTA misrep is bound to cause you some serious issues getting a J1. If possession of a Class A drug is considered "moral turpitude", you're probably SOL.
