Re: E-3 Visa 2010 Running Thread

So this has also been a point of much discussion on this forum. What would be considered a mistake?

Some think that the Point of Entry officer should only give till the expiry date of the visa...

So I got asked an interesting E3 visa question the other day and didn't know the answer, so I'll throw to the group to see what the consensus is.

Are you able to get an E3 visa issued if the terms...

Re: E-3 To H1B - Any Experiences?

Bahamas wont process 3rd Country Nationals unless its a simple renewal (with no changes). If its change of employer, or change of visa type or a new visa, they declined.

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

My understanding is that if you are laid off you are "out of status" and should leave the country within 10 days. You can't claim unemployment (obviously). Being "out of status" is not good... but...

How were you able to get a visa with an LCA expiration date after the visa expiration date? My understanding was the LCA should only be issued for a 2 year period for E3 partitioners. E3 Visas are...

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

So whats the rule? is it that entry should be given till the visa expires, or when the LCA expires? (which in theory is a few weeks before when the Visa expires?).

Of course, USCIS will havea ...

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

I don't know much, but to me, if USCIS doesnt know about it, I think its a bit suspect to rely on a mistake by the POE officer.

If you think about it, when the consulate or USCIS pulls up your...

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

no worries ... flying 5 or 6 people across the country just for visa's isnt much fun... driving makes it way more palatable.

Do you already have an appointment in Vancouver?

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

So thats an interesting question and I think there is a bit of a grey area. If you want them to get visas at the same time then they have to be with you and will have to travel to Canada. Although...

Re: E-3 Visa 2009 Thread

Hi 0161,

I did this exact same thing about 12 months ago. The E3 is not actually transferred, you are applying for a new E3. I got my original E3 in 2006 in Sydney.

Hi Laland,




I dont know why you would want to change from a H1 to an E3. The portability rules on the H1 are much better if you need to change jobs again. The only benefit for the E3 is...

Re: E3 visa

Actually, I dont think this would be a problem... as far as I know there is not a required minimum employment time. There is a maximum visa period of 2yrs, and is easily renewable.

As long as you...

Re: E3 visa

One question, how long did it take to get the visa into your passport? Was it the next day?

Andrew,



If you lodge an application through USCIS, are you able to leave the country whilst the application is pending for the 4 or 5 mth period?

thanks
