The only way to get RNE very fast is to have a Brazilian child or be married to a Brazilian, she did not do any one on time that is why it took her 11years to get her right to stay

My wife was already pregnant before we arrived Brazil, so the whole process was fast for me

How long did it take? cos its almost same in the UK right now

sukkot:
lol crime in any country on this planet is lower than the united states. like 1 million people are killed all over the united states annually

kidnapping like in Nigeria is not common in the west though
Kidnap you and call your family how can that work in places like USA and UK?

tensazangetsu20:
Men whatever suits you. Back to why I created this thread . FYI being part of the US visa waiver and working in the US aren't the same thing. Mexico isn't part of the US visa waiver program but Mexicans can work on a TN visa. Anyway, this is the last time I am going to talk about this. Goodbye

You aint the 1st person to suffer under this illusion, We have been on Nairaland since 2007 we still dey here, you wont be the last. In years to come, you wil still be a reference point just like others o n here, Im not wishing you bad luck cos that's stupid but,Im saying do more research and keep you cards close to your chest, be careful amongst the Nigerians you meet along the way as you are fairly new to Migration route. You only just started this Visa talk few weeks or months ago, Some of us here have been on it since 1990 and we are still on it.Good luck young man!

People don't like the truth.

I told someone here that Brazil has a high crime rate. I said I doubt he can live in the Oshodi equivalent of San Paulo.

He said is Nigeria safer than Brazil where you have Boko Haram and Killer Herdsmen? I said the devil is in the details.

I replied that th devil is in the details.

When I got back from Rio and landed at Sa paulo, I came off this big train station very massive near that Mkt full of Nigerians I cant remember, I was asking for direction as my Agent has booked us into one small but nice family hotel called Hotel Mino if spelt correctly, the person who gave us direction raised back to us, told me and my Mrs to hide our watches phones rings etc.I said thanks (Obrigado)When we turned the corner Lord we then knew why.Luckily a shop owner sent one of his boys,(turkish) to take us to the hotel and he xcorted us there.You cant even bring your Gadem phone out to film the area during the day you get robbed.

tensazangetsu20:
All this visas exists for chileans. There's no special one for UK passport holders. The h1b visa itself is a lottery based visa where there's 85000 visas against 780k applicants. The L1 is a transfer visa which you can use if you work for a US company in another country. Your options are to struggle against other one million applicants for H1B or use an L1 visa as a UK citizen. It's right there in what you posted

Your response shows you don't read what is being posted but chose to just listen to yourself, You specifically stated that only few countries has access to the US Job market but I just told you, I went to the US to carry out work(Installations and maintenance), my team where consist of Engineers from japan, Germany and the UK.if you live in Nicaragua you cant be an expert on what is going on in the USA when you don't live there or had an dealings that involved such Visas.xcept you have found yourself in such situations. The VWP countries are 38 so far not 4 as you seem to claim. Hats wrong assumption on your part
PS you use the word Struggle as a UK citizen, A Uk citizen does not struggle to go anywhere in the world well mayB the MOON.A[[lying for a Visa is formality, xcept you are trying to say such person wont come back to the UK if not what reason have intending countries got to deny a UK citizen Visa?

tensazangetsu20:
What you used was an L1 transfer visa which even you can get from Nigeria provided you work for an American company with a branch in Nigeria. Nothing special

here you go assuming again ,You should ask me what I used not tell me.I dont live in Nigeria I live and work in the Uk as a fluid Engineer.
Plz re read this https://www.nnuimmigration.com/work-visa-usa/

tensazangetsu20:
Mexicans are eligible for TN visa to work in the US due to the NAFTA free trade agreement. Only 5 countries have access to the US labour market. Chile, Australia, mexico, Singapore and Canada.

What are we talking about here I worked in Huston last year, all we needed to do was apply.my team where two japs and 4 Germans plus 3 of us from the Uk so your point is?
PLZ try and look at this and rea valuate your answers. Nothing is rigid as you think
https://www.nnuimmigration.com/work-visa-usa/

grandstar:
Thank you for your answer. This sounds more factual. If the country truly had unfettered access, it would lead to a loss of Chileans to the US, despite their high standard of living.

New Zealand and Australia have such an agreement.

Even though New Zealand is a rich advanced nation, they lose 27,000 of their citizens each year to Australia because of this policy. Considering New Zealand has about 4m people, this is a staggering amount.

Thank you. This is what I have been trying to say, You know we all read the Bible but have a different interpretation or understanding to it.But on this Question and answer between a Chilean and a US home affairs official, they clearly reiterated the rules and regulations.

spyder880:
More pictures

This land is sloped down to the back, which made the design of the foundation to be also stepped to correct the imbalance. That's where we got the name "stepped" from.

Bro last pic no roof or decking but there is windows on the ground floor, is this a good idea?

Xiaohei:
These guys are just out to fleece Nigerians of their hard-earned money considering that the UK visa denial rate for Nigerians is very high.

For someone living in Port Harcourt, to go to Lagos, they would have to fly there and back book hotel at least 2 nights, eat, Do you or can you imagine how much that cost? Your flight Tkt and accommodation will set you back nearly N200k plus. However now you can stroll in stroll out.
TSL office would lose at least 60% of its customers in Lagos and all those fancy Eateries i n front of it will lose customers too, while new Biz will bounce up in Abba road. I know that area, where presidential Hotel is, its already full of ABokis etc

Ropostic120:
Nothing dey UK
I would rather go to Finland,Sweden or Austria

I be wan say smthing to you, but I decided to go look at your profile and your post, then I realized it would be a waste of time!

Duru009:
Please how much is visit visa to UK ie 6 months visa

go to their website, dnt be lazy

Autobot05:
Use your brain before you talk

How old was you when the Ghanaian caddis was rounded up? meaning the took the last four zeros out? Their money is more useless than the naira!

Gerrard59:
Liar on all fronts! You were caught boxers down!

I am sure the wall broke since your head is kon kon

Demons lurking around pulling facts from their smelly yansh!



Based on the arrangement by the US government? YES! The fact is there in your eyes. Singaporeans and Australians have higher privileges than British citizens to work in the US. You lied that only Canadians enjoy such, but from the links I provided by the US government - four more countries enjoy the same access. You have lied countless times and should be terribly ashamed of yourself!

You want to be heard, fine you have been heard now do one,I have asked you kindly to go play with ur mates your nor REACH foxtrot Oscar

Treadway:
the fact is that arrangement exist and it is a special arrangement, and they don't use up their quotas, all of which Gerrard outlined. So, the OP who made his plans based on that knows that it will be easy to take advantage of that opportunity just as the screenshot I sent clearly stated. The opportunity is right there for the taking. End of.

Yeh but this was n ot what that ignorant renter was saying he seems to think one can just wake up and cross to the USA no checks Visa waved, visa is waved for tourism but if u want to work there are further requirement. I had to work in the US last year for just two weeks I needed a Visa even as a British citizen with blue passport, SO you want to tell me Chile has more rights to enter the US more than its colonial fathers' know some people will say their legs have reached a height even where their Head has not reached! Same was said about Brazil, I was there Jan to Feb this year,I met two Nairalanders, they are here still, I dnt want to mention their names as they are work in progress. they were chatting to me and my Mrs.They have tried to travel via road to the US two times failed cos they got robbed, so they are trying to raise money.
Bro you see these routes, do you have any Idea of howmany Nigerians are strandedThey wont say anything they will even encourage you to come when you land eye will clear!But Im not saying all of them though cos people have different level of satisfaction. Som nah that country be heaven!

Longinyamapucci:
Don't mind the bloody trafficking love-vendor. I pity yeye Nigerian youths trying to pay attention to one miserable country in south America...they are not better than Africans, infact they die more like flies trying to reach united States than illegals from Morocco to Spain or Italian island.

He want those who are lazy to dm him for more money.

Imagine saying Chile airport is cleaner than that of Italy, I can bet my two balls that this homo sapien never reach Europe, who will leave Europe to drug and cheap prostitution infested country like Chile.

No too blame OP nah where he sabi reach, with God's grace he will move to a better place.

Gerrard59:
Go and hit your kon kon head against the wall, you bloody godforsaken liar!

You thought you would lie brazenly without being caught?!!!!

Hit your head Mr 23 years in the abroad. Filthy and godforsaken linus! Demons with access to the Internet!

Guy go back to Sleep you no REACH,U be smally ontop this matter. Go play with ur mates run along plz

Treadway:
ok. Let's hear you out. Kindly share evidence of such an arrangement for the UK, with the specific details such as the one I posted for Chile

SImple, how do the Health Care workers make it to the UK? How about the High skilled Migrant route?there are loads of scheames too much to mention if one does a good research..

Opeolami:
I'm sorry, I didn't mention the location.

UK

what Sector are you limited to right about NOW?

Treadway:
gerrard59 has shared some points, which are 100% correct as evidenced below. Why people find it difficult to just check things to be sure if they are true/fact or not is just baffling. As I like argument rish, I would never badger on unless I'm 100% sure of what I am saying. The transcript you sent says nothing about the profile of the person making that enquiry, not to mention it is from 2010 ffs!

there is a link, and it was a QA session with the US Embassy have a look at the link I posted FFS

Ask yourself does the UK not have such for Nigerians?does this now mean all Nigerians can just apply and go to the UK?

Longinyamapucci:
Pig like you. Go to hell with your drug and human trafficking third world countries like Chile and Nicaragua.

I agree with you, he is a waste of space struggling by any means to lure innocent young men with false hope Coming from Brazil to the Uk, you need to see search carried out on me at the Airport me wey even get CTC and MOD Clearance!

Gerrard59:
I honestly do not give a fvck how long you have been abroad. I do not and would never do. Your post has nothing to do with the H1B1 I stated above. I noticed the inquiries by Chileans were made in 2010 when Chile suffered an earthquake. An enquiry resulting from a natural disaster has nothing to do with an OPEN DOOR access to the US labour market. Also, the H1B1 has existed for Chileans since 2004 while Chile became a member of the Visa Waiver Program in 2014. See? Another unintelligent lie.

https://www.dhs.gov/news/2014/02/28/dhs-announces-chile-s-designation-visa-waiver-program

Who give a craap about the shytehole you live and crawl from guy foxtrot Oscar

Gerrard59:
This is the problem I have with you people - you people lie a lot and you do this brazenly. Also, if you must lie, please do so intelligently.

Chileans have the H1B1 category where they get allocated 1,400 H1B1 visas annually of which it never gets filled up. By this, they have a direct route to be employed since the visa allocation is automatic since it never gets filled. Singaporeans have 5,400 slots. That too never gets filled. Unlike the rest of the world who slug it out in H1B that has only 85000 slots of which 65000 are for BSc holders. Chileans are not subjected to this. Mexicans also enjoy the TN visa you said only Canada does. See? You have lied the second time. Then Australians have the E-3 visa category to be employed directly by US companies without issues or playing a lottery system.

See? That is the third lie.

What rubbish are you talking about and what lies did I say on here? Why don't we ask the creator of this topic to do the Enquiry and come back? or you think I'm one of those kids on here who aint been anywhere? or you think say 23 years abroad nah Beans? Respect yourself fast"
Am I being paid on here or do I need any visa or restriction to visit anywhere in this world? nah Only MOOON I nor fit go like this?

All these questions asked by Chileans are LIES as well or are you now a Chilean?

Introduction

In light of the recent natural catastrophes in Chile, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds Chileans of U.S. immigration benefits available to eligible Chilean nationals upon request.

USCIS understands that a natural catastrophe can affect an individual’s ability to establish or maintain lawful immigration status. In addition to the March 10 Update, the following Questions and Answers address temporary relief measures available to nationals of Chile.

Questions and Answer

Q1. I am a Chilean national and cannot return to Chile at this time due to the earthquake. My allowed time to stay in the United States is expiring or about to expire. What are my options? Can I work during my stay in the US?
A1. If you wish to change or extend your nonimmigrant status, you may request an extension if you meet the existing criteria for your specific nonimmigrant category. If you are a B-1 or B-2 visitor, you may apply for a six-month extension on the basis that the events of Feb. 27, 2010 earthquake and its aftermath make you unable to return to Chile at this time. Although B-1 and B-2 visitors may receive an extension under these special considerations, they are not authorized to work in the United States. Normally, an extension application must be filed before the authorized stay expires. According to existing guidelines, USCIS may accept applications for change of status or extension of stay after the period of authorized admission has expired. No waiver of this filing fee is available.

If you are a Chilean national and wish to receive special consideration for a late filed extension or change of status application, you must include evidence with Form I-539 that you were unable to return to Chile before the February 27 earthquake. If you were in lawful, nonimmigrant status on February 27, you will be excused for filing late up to May 27, 2010. After May 27, 2010, eligibility for delayed filing will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

Q2. I am a Chilean national granted parole to enter the United States temporarily, but I am unable to return to Chile due to the earthquake and my parole has expired or is about to expire. What are my options? Can I work during my stay in the US?
A2. If you are a Chilean national who has already been paroled into the United States, you may apply for an extension of your parole (“re-parole”), by making an InfoPass appointment at your local USCIS field office. The length of the extension is at the Director’s discretion, but normally will not exceed six months. To qualify for re-parole, you will need to demonstrate that you were or are currently prevented from returning to Chile before the expiration of your current or last authorized parole. You will also need to present a genuine, expired or unexpired Form I-94, which contains an expiration date between February 27, 2010 and May 27, 2010.

Once your parole has been extended, you may apply for employment authorization by filing Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization. For instructions on how to apply, please refer to the filing instructions on the Form I-765.

Q3. I am a Chilean national granted advance parole to travel outside of the United States and cannot return to the United States from Chile due to the recent natural disasters, and my allowed time is expiring or about to expire. What are my options?
A3. Due to disruption of consular services following the earthquake, and in recognition of the humanitarian needs of affected individuals, an automatic extension of advance parole until May 27, 2010 is granted to those aliens, who are currently in Chile and who are outside of the United States if their advance parole authorization, Form I-512, Authorization for Parole of Aliens into the United States, expires between Feb. 27, 2010 and May 27, 2010. Ports of entry have been instructed to accept these auto-extended Form I-512s. Affected individuals do not need to bring any additional documentation with them to the airport.

Q4. I am a Chilean national F-1 student currently enrolled in school in the United States. Due to the recent natural catastrophes in Chile, I can no longer cover the cost of my education. What are my options? Can I work during my stay in the United States?
A4. If your family in Chile is funding your studies, you may be eligible for work authorization based on severe economic hardship. According to the regulations at 8 CFR 214.2(f)(9)(II)(C) and (D), F-1 academic students may request off-campus employment authorization based on severe economic hardship caused by unforeseen circumstances beyond their control, such as changes in the financial condition of their source of support. If your family is encountering difficulties with funding your studies in the United States due to the recent earthquakes in Chile, you may apply for employment authorization based on severe economic hardship. To qualify, you must establish that: a) you have been an F-1 academic student for at least one full academic year; b) you are in good academic standing and carrying a full course load; and c) employment authorization is needed to avoid severe economic hardship.

You will need to obtain a recommendation from your Designated School Official (DSO). That recommendation must be placed on your Form I-20. Once you obtain this recommendation, you must file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, with your properly endorsed Form I-20, according to the filing instructions on the form. For Form I-765, you may apply to have the fee waived due to your inability to pay. For guidance on fee waivers, please visit www.uscis.gov/feewaiver.

Q5. I am a Chilean national whose case is pending with USCIS. I need my case expedited due to the earthquake in Chile. What are my options?
A5. Given the need for immediate relief, USCIS will expedite certain applications and petitions. Standard requirements for security checks remain in place under expedited procedures.

If a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident requests expedited processing of a Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, the case will be expedited where a visa number is readily available.

Chilean nationals with benefit applications pending in the United States may need to travel quickly for emergent reasons and will need to apply for advance authorization for parole to return to the United States. USCIS will expedite the Form I-131, Application for Travel Document, in such cases and where we have been advised of the emergent need to travel.

Q6. Where can I find more information about immigration relief benefits?
A6. For more information on USCIS humanitarian programs, visit www.uscis.gov or call the USCIS Contact Center at 800-375-5283.

Omini247:
Can you see but you create account as babe

DEm full here, I'm surprised people dont realise we can actually go back and check their previous post, I have an Eye for someone on here lying fru their nose and misdirecting persons on these forums, we just giving em more ropes to tie themselves cos to LIE dey their DNA

Ijeamaka1:
You said it all
I moved to Brazil with my wife and son , we also had another child in brazil, currently we have all naturalized all within less than 4years
People keep wasting their time in Europe and north america with no easy route to naturalize ,some fall out of status and are put up for deportation , mortgaged and wasted years

Y’all keep comparing crime rate while I enjoy my blue Passport visa free benefits with my family

SO when did you enter Brazil and how long did it take to naturalize? I thought you were giving 10 years Visa 1st then after that you apply for Naturalization, at least this was what I was told when I was at a drink up in that popular shopping centre full of Nigerians, I can't remember the name.

Celepope:
That will take some years to achieve. Because they have to go through residency route before gaining their citizenship.

That is true, I met a lady in Brazil who just got her right to stay in the country and it took her 11 years and for all them times she has not been to Nigeria. She got it when she gave Birth. Now she is trying for the passport. She also told me about the difficulty she faces getting her Son to go to school, this was in Sao Palo.

SmartPolician:
No sane Nigérian will leave Nigeria and come back....unless you are well-established here.

That is the Main aim

Thank GOODNESS, someone saw the Light, no more flights to Lagos in the name of Visa application to UK, next stop Schengen Application and USA=Canada. Everyone from Benin to the whole of South South and Southeast will go there. Smart men will upgrade their flat to Air BnB standard, there is Money to be made now.

SayNo2SmallPrik:
Just 2015? All these Nairaland kids sef

ABi ohhh lol

IbeOkehie:
LOL, there's MANY threads from as far back as 2018 where people were giving this same advice. 🤣 Has Nigeria gotten better or worse since then?



Yes we know there are rich people in Nigeria. The REAL question is how many? What is the PROBABILITY of living at a world middle class standard in Nigeria? Nigeria is the Poverty Capital of The World for goodness sake.

Anyone on this thread must also note the man explicitly told everyone that Chile is a stepping stone to the USA or Canada. That's the more important point.

Good Luck to Nigerians!

Listen as a youth I left Nigeria in 1999/2000 , for the UK , it was even harder than to go to the UK,I had the same mindset but guess what, when you have lived long abroad as I have done, you will change and realize you do not need any of them govt to survive in Nigeria as a matter of fact, the same thing goes for the so-called politicians, vast majority of them lived years abroad. You will be in a moral state to be able to provide for yourself what govt cannot provide for you. The there is this other thing about Africa that even the westerners are attracted to, you to will be attracted to it.Let me stop here.
