But not E3? How can one transition to permanent residency if the E3 is not dual intent?

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

I went to the US on a B1/B2, in case the job hunt took more than three months. In fact it did - 4 months - so that saved me a trip out of the US and back. I could stay for 6 months on a B1/B2. I have...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

I didn't have any problems at all for my first stamping in Ottawa - Nov last year. It was the easiest interview, 2-3 questions about my job and what the company did. Picked up passport from courier...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

If you answer 'No' to the question 'Do you have an approved LCA', you can continue and complete the DS-160. You can even turn up to your appointment and you should be fine. I did this for my...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

I got a B1/B2 visa in case the job search took me longer than 3 months. In fact it did - 4 months - and this visa allowed me to stay 6 months. This saved me from having to leave the country and...

If my role is almost identical to an employee (I work solely for them in their office, they supply all the equipment, they set hours), then I am more an employee than a contractor.

Many roles in...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

I understand that you aren't allowed to be a contractor on the E3. What is the specific reason for this and how does the US government track this?

I've been offered a role and they are willing to...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

I'd be interested in hearing if anyone else has had a delay with the LCA, as I'm about to get my E3 process started too.

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

Also, once you...

Re: E-3 Visa for Australians Thread- It's all in here

What if you enter on a tourism 1-year visa (B1/B2) instead of the VWP? Does this reduce the processing for Canadian embassies/consulates?

Has anyone had any luck with getting a first-time E3 at a...
