This all went fine for us today. It took about 25 minutes to get into the embassy, although this gets progressively longer throughout the day apparently. Quite a few people were turned...

Re: Visa Interview

Good stuff, thanks :)

It is at 8am :thumbdown: so I wonder if there'll be that much waiting around. Time to double-check and triple check the paperwork..!

Re: Visa Interview - Belfast

Oooh good point! Looks like a great way to get around the obscene waiting time for London. I take it one can use their driver's license for internal UK flights then?

Re: Visa Interview - Belfast

Hmm, curious. I was under the impression that you had to hand over your passport and they it back to you a couple of days later with a stamp in it. Is the visa a separately issued document then,...

Re: Potential job in the USA

O1 filed with USCIS on Friday! Now a 3 week wait, assuming everything goes okay.

The missus is a nanny at the moment. If we ever stay long enough to get a GC I think she would find it fairly...

Re: Potential job in the USA

I have accepted the job, subject to gaining an O1 (and they're quite confident about that! :blink:)

They're not paying the tax, but its a large enough package anyway that I think we'll have enough...

Re: Potential job in the USA

Don't get me wrong; It is a natural worry that she may become isolated when I'm at work all the time. I have a friend in San Diego who split with his wife for similar reasons (back together now...

Re: Potential job in the USA

Great advice - thanks everyone. I have been reading through the visa requirements quite thoroughly, and its not something I take lightly. Talking to a seperate lawyer sounds like a wise move.

Re: Potential job in the USA

They want to do an O1 (I have some pretty impressive products to my name - and have held senior positions). They said a J1 may be quicker though, and they could move to an O1 during the J1.
