I am currently an expat from Essex living in Spain.

However due to unforseen circumstances, I may be single in the near future and my career in Spain looks bleak.

I may be offered a h1b sponsor with a company called 'MLS'
Has anyone been this route?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Are you sure about the H-1B David? it clearly states ; No chance of an H1b unless you have a degree or degree equivalent + lots of professional experience. You would have to be sponsored by a US company - you cannot apply for this yourself.
lol no come along now David, we all know you don't have these qualifications

OMG are you saying is OU degree in Mackrame won't qualify the lad for an H1b?

What if Real were to sponsor him for an L1 transfer to the San Jose CyberRays?

Would that work?

Unfortunately David, your specialist talent of "Putting the ball over the bar" has a very large existing suply of American's who can do this so it would be hard for you to get an H1b. If you had the talent of "putting the ball under the bar" then you would be ok.

Actually David, I think you are extremely well suited to the USA - not with your H1B in MLS, though, but with the NFL!

It'd be right up your street - the job that you'd do is be what they call a "kicker", and all you have to do is come onto the field a couple of times a game, and punt the ball straight over the bar!

You'll get to sit on your arse on the bench for 90% of the game, which should suit your current form, and you will only come on for special set pieces - magic!

You'll also get paid a bloody fortune, and your wife will get to hang around with similar fashion and self obsessed people, and drive round in a great big Hummer. And more, plenty of the shallow people here will love her for it, and want to be like her! So much better than in UK, wouldn't you agree?

So what are you waiting for - get your NFL application in today!

So what visa did you get in the end?

Are they gonna sponsor your for a GC?

What's Victoria going to do if she's not allowed to work?

Are you still looking for new bodyguards?

Leave Beckham alone, I sure if you knew his side of the story you wouldn't take the piss.

This also explains why poor Victoria's has had that much luck singing.
