Americans do not go around asking you to file for a US visa, we line up in millions every day for it, willingly. The visas don't come for free... those fees pay to keep visa officers who receive and process your application and then interview you, the cost to run background checks on your application, print a visa for you... do you expect to receive all those for free?

You have the power to stop them from using you as a business venture, you can choose not to apply at all. I doubt America will care one bit.

I doubt anyone forced you to view the thread as well.
Create your own thread to protest your own point of view. Derailing is not moral eaither.

TWoods:


And that is of importance to you how exactly?

Advice isn’t what you need. I don’t encourage frauds seeking b1 visas to go hide illegally. There is no guidance to he who is impervious to reason. Lastly, as this is a public forum, feel free to pass if you think I have not answered your question.

Funny but the truth right return back home

You ruined your country. Enjoy it, by yourselves. Pray harder, perhaps your god is asleep. You Pharisees have been fasting for decades now.

I suppose you know that your “god” demand holiness of you right? Oh wait, neither Shiloh, now the experience, nor the redemption camp changed you? Oh dear. What a Frank waste of an entire week.

You are wrong my belief is my business and how are you sure I’m a Christian and note we are not talking of religion here

@ bj with your working permit Gone, do you still work with guy M ?

Tho Twoods may sound like a psyco but i dey reason with am, He's trying to point out the consequence of breaking the law intentionally which is the main cause of naija's problem, it seems obvious that this is why more strict laws are been implied by the embassy.

And you guys think it is that easy?. A lot of people that finally completed their PhD in the US moved to Canada to become a permanent resident (Canada will give you straight PR comparing to America). When y'all come here, you will realize that becoming PR isn't as easy as A,B,C regardless of class of visa or type of occupation. It takes years and years of waiting.

A lot of folks discourage others from coming to America and when you check their background, you will realized that they also went through something like that in the past (probably had to marry an ugly old white lady to get their PR eventually when they get tired of the mountains of re-application for work authorization). Now that they are citizen and been living here for years, they start acting like they were there when the US constitution got written. They act more American than even the naturally born Citizens.

All we are saying on this forum is advise people about their situation, let then know the repercussions of the decisions they are about to make, give them other options they can explore and wish them all the best. That's all.

I don't know if it easy, and honestly don't care if its easy, the people I referenced to in my example are not your average Nigerians like me (yes, even me, no smart), they got multiple offers from different countries, they are the intellectual cream of the crop, for them they get easy migration, no matter how many trumps fill the white house, or right wing parties take over the western world; and honestly, Twoods, kind of fits the class of people I described.
EDIT: as the world kills of manual labour, there is constant need for highly specialised minds in tech, there was an article in the economist, where Data science and AI post graduate student all got jobs 6 months to graduation, Doctoral students in stem have 36-48months OPT extension, and in some cases, can file for themselves, and where they find themselves in academia or not for profit research, they are not counted in the H1-B quota

I can't think of a better contribution to the society at large than this!
@blowjobs, continue the good works...

Huh? I would gladly return to Nigeria, if religious hypocrites like you weren’t there.

I applied for an f1 at a time questions such as the above weren’t asked. I guess the US got tired of non-contributors gumming up the immigration system. Sorry.

I really understand all your point of view but it seems you are an atheist. If you are not bad. Religion out to be shown by conscience to what we hear not attendance in church/mosque.

The ease depends on your perceived value to the society. If someone thinks you’re worth the effort, they will move heaven and earth for you. Many Nigerians get through the process in 2-5 years flat. I went through the process without paying a dime and I had paid lawyers do everything for me. I’ve got friends who went through the process even faster - usually highly qualified doctors/surgeons. Not everyone went through the backdoor or married to stay. This is why I encourage folks to aim high... you don’t have to be a genius neither do you have to sneak in, the door is wide open. The problem is our mentality is so often warped that we think the only way is the fraudulent way.

To your second point, the jibe about folks acting more American than the native born is a well worn insult, way past it’s sell by date. It’s the same stuff you hear in the African American community where you are accepted if you’re a high school dropout, or run off the mill baby mama, drug kingpin, layabout etc. Those who step out of that stereotype to go to college, get corporate jobs, move out to the surburbs etc. are often derided and accused of “acting white”. It says a lot that we think so low of ourselves that we think being above board is something reserved for whites, not lowly “hustlers” like us.

When you talk of folks who finished with phds having to move to Canada, I’d ask you: phds in what and from what schools/programs? A PhD in African studies from Lincoln university is quite useless to be honest.

I firmly disagree. We can do better than thinking the sky is too high for us to reach.

I’m not an atheist by any stretch. You and i fundamentally have a different idea about the Christian faith. You think it’s a religion, I think it’s a relationship whose fruits ought to be borne by how you live your life, the decisions you take and the compromises you are willing to make. Nigerians are Christians only by virtue of the fact that they spend their entire week running from one church program to the other. Their lives show zero fruit of this vaunted faith of theirs.

How many Nigerians are in this category under the percentage of Nigerians studying in the US.

Nigerians in specialized fields have wide range of options and usually, US is always the last of them

Hmm

HiComm001:
Thanks blowjobs for the wonderful thread.

My aunt is connecting me to an NGO that that helps young people from humble background to secure visa and work in usa.

NB: The NGO gets the visa for the candidate ( I think the company will fill for the visa from the usa)
When the person get there, you will be working for the company as an unskilled employee.

Now my question,
1 What class of visa will be issued to me?
2 How possible/easy will it be for me to adjust status to have a green card ?
3 Can I be able to marry a USC if I desire and how easy can I find a partner?
4 Can I enrol into the university while working?

Please I'm a newbie, enlighten me before I make a costly mistake.

NGO can't get visa for you. They can provide you with the paper work. you still need to be qualified and appear for interview

I wouldn't know the class of visa. Let your Aunt tell you the class of visa (it however sounds shady to me)

Depends on your class of visa, mode of entry and immigration status. you have to qualify to adjust status first (some class of visa and immigration status do not qualify)

You can marry anyone you want as long as you are obeying the laws of the land (don't be like Roy Moore and start chasing underage girls in the mall)

How easy to find a partner? Well depends on you. How easy do you attract people? Are you friendly? what do you want in a partner? what kind of lady tickles your fancy? Do you like them big or small? Do you like the party or the church? Are you a good "toaster"? can you make a lady's heart "melt", Can you "make it rain".. these are few questions you need to ask yourself

Your category of visa will tell if you can enroll in a college or not.

This back and forth about who can come to yankee and who shouldn't come to yankee is getting on my nerves.

Let people (adults) make decision of their lives they can live on. Whatever consequences that follow will be on them.

We can only advise and let them know alternative ways not CONDEMN their decisions in its totality. Whether the advise is taken or not, wish them "goodluck"

So far you are not providing a "workable, better naija", let people who chooses to migrate do it.

Bwahahahaha

How easy to find a partner? Really? like seriously? You can go to Walmart and buy one.
