Kimmy did u have date night yet?

Me and the mister was suppose to go see the biggie movie last night he talked about its too cold.... I am like we not watching the movie outside.... so maybe tonight!

hey Portland, my teenager said that the movie sold out last night so get your tickets early. everytime you say mister - i think of the movie Color Purple

Since we live in the bushes I don't really think it will sold out, I don't if the surrounding community is into that kinda movie it only playing in two of the theater.

Lol...He sure does not treat me like how Mister treated Ms Cicil...

Ladies, I am writting this just as a FYI.

The work programs that usually recurite from Jamaica workers, will not be able to recurite Jamaican workers this year, There have been a cap hold on recuriting H2B workers, therefore these same company have to advertise locally before they can be granted a H2B cap release. In saying this, I am putting it out there that companies such as Pool companies, Resorts, Asumentment parks, Hotels any other company that normally recurit sesonal workers will be looking for workers here in the US.

Thnx Rox, i knew this was coming..but i thought they 1st have to get to the B2B visa cap..so now what's gonna happen to the H2B visa when everyone is hired from within the US..with all this crackin down on illegal immigrants..they feel if they slow the H2B visas u can decrease the amount of illegals? hmmm

i was just talking to my SO about this, he had signed-up for a work program last year and they called him about a job in Flordia or North Carolina. but they wanted him to pay $2000.

i was like what

Ryon, that $2000 is about correct, I will explain it later. But he needs to be sure that the company has been alocted it's number of H2B visa before he pays out any money.

Rox, have you heard of employmentjamaica?

NO, that not what's happen, since our economic situation is so stress, the rule is you have to hire within the US, before they can allow for the H2B cap to be extended. I feel this capis only going to be for this year, then next year we will be back to recuirting from outside of the US.

now i get it Rox and it makes sense..

And if i'm not mistaken remember u can't adjust from a J visa..so don't think about it

There you go, the cap doesn't appy to the J visa's only the H2B- seasonal workers. I have guys calling me left and right because the H2b have been capped. One guy just told me to find him a wife, I just laugh. This will be hard on a lot of them, because they were counting on returning for another year.

PortAngel, whoa this is not what you think. They are looking for people who are already here (USA)on their J1 visa to offer them emplaoyment since they can't get any H2B workers out.

[LIFE'SJOURNEY 970]

Most of the H2B visa programs that recurits out of Jamaica cost an average of $1500 to $2000 dollars. They work is normally for 6 to 9 months.

KK..i think J visa is the crew mans visa

[LIFE'SJOURNEY 970]

what is J visa?

A J visa is usually given to a student for education in the USA. They are allowed to work on a J1 visa, but they can't do AOS on it without a wavier given.

That's why this requirement is printed in this flyer 'Requirements: Must be enrolled in a college or University.

Overview - About the Exchange Visitor Program

The Exchange Visitor Program is carried out under the provisions of the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961, as amended. The purpose of the Act is to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries by means of educational and cultural exchanges. International educational and cultural exchanges are one of the most effective means of developing lasting and meaningful relationships. They provide an extremely valuable opportunity to experience the United States and our way of life. Foreign nationals come to the United States to participate in a wide variety of educational and cultural exchange programs.

The Exchange Visitor Program is administered by the Office of Exchange Coordination and Designation in the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Visit the Exchange Visitor Program to learn more about program eligibility requirements, regulations and much more. At the conclusion of their program, Exchange Visitor program participants are expected to return to the home countries to utilize the experience and skills they have acquired while in the United States. Learn more about exchange related programs and opportunities.

In carrying out the responsibilities of the Exchange Visitor Program, the Department designates public and private entities to act as exchange sponsors. Designated sponsoring organizations facilitate the entry of foreign nationals into the United States as exchange visitors to complete the objectives of one of the exchange visitor program categories, which are:

Au pair

Camp Counselor

Student, college/university

Student, secondary

Government Visitor

International Visitor (reserved for U.S. Department of State use)

Alien physician

Professor

Research Scholar

Short-term Scholar

Barack is on CNN..just arrive in DC

[LIFE'SJOURNEY 970]

Kimmy I think crew members on a ship will get a H2B visa , some may get a HB1, but I don't know opf any cruise line that is register in the US, so most of them have some other type of visa. When a ship is docked at port in the US, the crew are required to carry their ship ID.
