Caligastia, thanks for comforting my mind . Yes, i know that i must have a job sponsoring me for that.. that's not a problem plus my parents happen to live there too, but they are moving back in some time though. I won't come illegally, maybe I'll just have to marry one of you .
And I'm pretty sure they wouldn't find out, but I want to do it the right way you know.. i'm a stand up guy these days....


If your parents are US citizens, or even permanent residents, you should be able to come over through them.

Nah, won't work.. I'm over 21. I just did some more research and Yeeeeeees *with cartmans voice* i don't have a record. In fact, when i delived the police certificate, it should be clean. yyeeeah. Should be no problem. Of course our secret police keeps the records (not a secret), but i don't think they''ll go there. It's not like we call the cia and feds if someone wants to come here.

Heres a tip. When they ask you if you have ever been arrested, say no.

When they get you to fill out a form that asks you if you have ever done anything against the law which you werent caught for (they will BTW), admit nothing.

Ok.. and since i have to bring that police certificate myself to them, and if it's clean.. then i'm clean damn it! .
But I still want to consult some of the people in here, just in case.
It's like the ladies asking you when you're going to the airport if the bag never leaved your sight etc. you just say no, everything's ok, even if you left it from your sight for 2 seconds.

Then again we had this foreign guy and he became MP officer, and he had a looooong list of things in his old country.. that's the way it goes i guess then.

Tired of ads?

If you want to go to live in the South, Austin is the place to be. A huge computer industry, great food, an awesome music scene, few right-wing nutjobs; what more can you ask for.

Of course, the weather does blow, but, like I said, the weather is pretty nasty in most of the South.

Of course Texans on Apolyton have strange ideas of what constitutes the Right Wing.

Plus Texas has a state religion that you may not be ready for.

FOOTBALL. American Football. High school, college, and profesional all are Holy in Texas and must be worshiped during the season.

Texmex is good food though.

I don't know what job you are getting, but unless they are willing to wait for about 12 months before you bstart working, green card isn;t the way to go.

You should apply for a H-1 visa first. It is a temporary workvisa, valid for 2x3 years, and is fairly easily handled. After you have your H-1 you can apply for a green card if you want to.

AFAIK, the vast majority of highly skilled foreign workers in the US are here in a H-1 visa the first couple of years.

Actually, Austin sucks. It's a classic example of Urban sprawl. You want heaven on earth, go 100 miles west to Junction.

Why would you go to TExas in the first place? I've yet to meet a European who like Texas... But I'm met dozens who hated it.

Try California or the East Coast. I'm in Pasadena (greater LA area) and I really like it.

Pasadena is a nice little city. Gets real cold by Southern California standards sometimes. It used to have terrible smog frequently(as in at least 200 days a year) but the smog levels are way down from when I was kid. Its in the foothills and that is where the smog tends to back up in the afternoons. My dad had photos from his office where the mountains were clear and bright and close in the morning and invisible in the haze in the afternoon despite there nearness.

Hehehe, I'm longing for the cold... Since I'm a swede I'm not really built for the Southern Cal climate...

The smog really isn't a problem anymore. I can see the hills from my office, and it is rare that I can't see the tips.

Where did your dad work?

He worked at an engineering firm on Colorado Blvd. The parking lot is, or at least was, used for the parade. The photos were taken from the north side of the building looking across Colorado IRC. This was back in the mid 70's.

Pasadena has had snow a few times in my life. Rarely lasts more than it takes to make the papers. If you havn't been there long be prepared for rain this winter. Lots of rain as it looks an El Nino is coming this year. You might get snow but its not likely.
