I'm getting sponsored for a work visa in a high paying tech job and even if you're getting sponsored there's still a lottery because there's a visa cap. there's no guarantee you'll actually get the work permit. gj america :thumbsup:

this year you've got a 30% chance of winning even after your company has shelled out for all the lawyers and poo poo. This is of course once you've successfully completed all of your interviews lmao seriously america just set up a new visa category for the EU for fucks sake (which the EU should also do for US citizens imo)


why do I like california so much ugh


edit: oh and if you do get the work visa, the earliest you can start working is in October. Submissions open on april 1st and last for 5 days so there's a good 6 months of pure anticipation and 0 ability to plan anything before you find out if you can actually move

edit2: gently caress it, might as well rant here, my SO also got into Harvard and lmao guess what, you have to convince the US embassy that you're actually going there to study and not planning on being an illegal. You also get sent back once you finish your studies (unless you apply for a job and get sponsored, refer to rant above) because who in their right mind would want to keep an Ivy league graduate around rite?

Nah that's not even screwed up. For you just a year of dumb interviews where you have to talk about your sex life and everything. It's designed to catch fake people who do it for money.

The best part however (through several people I know) is that couples who were actually in love and married for real still got denied and the bride/husband were sent back to the original country. That is, they got flagged as fake for some reason. It's like a DMV, you misspelled one thing and bye bye. Also like any gov't bureaucracy, you get one lovely interviewer with an attitude and you're done. In one case (friend of a friend) the girl was not only married to the guy but also pregnant. Got denied on one of the interviews and sent back. Immigration denial also = never ever getting a visa to the U.S. in your lifetime again. It's a wonderful system.
