  1. This weeks as an urgent job move for the USC so should be ok
  2. Usually being a Contractor makes more sense.
  3. Time for an update. I have been asked to make it clear that the presence of a Gt Pryennees around the 9 second mark in no way condones her behaviour,
  4. What sort of evidence did you submit with the I 130?
  5. https://www.imglobal.com/visitor-insurance My memory is not what it is but I thought this lot did new immigrant insurance, they mention immigrant in the title but then talk about travel, might be worth a call.
  6. Bit of an assumption but Sponsorship for your Husband maybe an issue, do you have anyone to be a Joint Sponsor. Assuming you are in Canada they are quite keen that you show Domicile in the US.
  7. More for my amusement but Tesco do Insurance! https://www.tescobank.com/insurance/
  8. Google New Immigrant Insurance. I do not know of any I would recommend but either that or take the risk. I have been out of the biz for a long time and there certainly not anything in the UK back then, not an obvious market for a UK Insurer but who knows now. Thee is Global Insurance, I seem to remember CIGNA was at least one insurer who did it aimed at the Global Senior Exec market, seems overkill for this.
  9. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/29/politicians-immigration-wrong-cheap-labour I have no idea how this passed the Guardian censors but this is spot on. There are always some things I will disagree with. But the essence that it costs money to migrate is absolutely true, poor people generally can not pay a Coyote. I would add the era of cheap mass transportation. I worked out that when the train first came to where I am not that far from Denver a ticket would have cost a skilled tradesman, say a Carpenter the equivalent of what it would cost for me to fly from Denver to China now. Some of his numbers are just wrong, I think there are about a million immigrants to the US a year, but there are currently about 10,000 a day crossing the southern border. Obviously that ratio varies time and by country. I do agree with this: This is nothing new, ask the Romans.
  10. I could but that is not the term. is this banned?
  11. I have seen this raised before, I believe the online tool only checks for the 5 year qualification and yes you broke your presence for naturalisation.
  12. A company I used to work for sponsored a Horse Race once a year, we would all go, Client entertainment etc. Back then I think I put 20 quid in my pocket and if I came away with anything that was a result.
  13. I saw that of the American hostage the one female has been confirmed murdered, seems that there are 6 male hostages and Biden AWOL as usual. I am not going to discuss specifics but I have always taken the view that to play by the rules which seem to vary over time and who you speak to then you better have a massive advantage. Let us say the United Nations/Allies had to play by modern progressive rules in WW2, could they have won, possibly, would it have taken much longer with many more casualties absolutely. It is interesting that the ones who cry war crimes where none seem to exist also seem to miss much more obvious examples, wonder why?
  14. I remember reading about this some time back. You can win a prize not the prize, I think the bottom prize is 15x the bet, so yes you win but also lose. Not quite my first job but I did work at a Bookies one summer, very apparent who wins and it is not the punters.
  15. Ohh come on how can that be a breach of the VJ Rules, bad enough a normal word for ciggies is banned.
  16. All the Judges involved are Dems. so 3 Dems voted against. It does intrigue me if there will be ####### for tat, absolutely crazy situation. Now if the Dems just put forward a decent Candidate there would be no need for this.
  17. I have the advantage of this being a local story that surprisingly received wide coverage.
  18. FYI England like Florida does not issue Visa's. And is not in the Schengen area. Europe, well that depends on which definition you are using.
  19. With it nearly upon us here is an interesting review by one of Scotland's finest.
  20. Mexico and Canada. I seem to remember the Swiss were easy with LPRs
  21. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/dec/19/trump-colorado-presidential-ballot-disqualified-14th-amendment In a historic decision, the justices ordered that he be removed from the state’s presidential primary ballot, after determining that he engaged in insurrection on 6 January 2021. The ruling sets up a likely showdown in the nation’s highest court to settle whether the January 6 attack on the Capitol amounted to an insurrection, and whether Trump’s involvement disqualifies him from running for office. The 4-3 decision by the Colorado supreme court marks the first time a presidential candidate has been deemed unqualified for office under a rarely used provision that bars insurrectionists from holding office. “A majority of the court holds that Trump is disqualified from holding the office of president under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment,” the court, whose justices were all appointed by Democratic governors, wrote in its ruling. Trump has vowed to appeal to the US supreme court, his campaign said. “We have full confidence that the US supreme court will quickly rule in our favor and finally put an end to these un-American lawsuits,” said Steven Cheung, a Trump campaign spokesperson. These are the same people who keep on going on about defending Democracy. You must admit it is hilarious. Amusingly using such a broad brush interpretation I can see Old Joe having the same issues. Where does it stop? All the Dem states ban Trump and all the Repub States ban Old Joe?
