Blackfinegirl:Visa fee means you go for holiday not OWRK, after teh visa xpires it means you have to come back to your country if you stay you are an illegal immigrant, I am a British citizen, I can't go to the US to work without a working permit! I have been dealing with Miscreants on NL since 2007 who try to perfect certain countries with the hope people patronize them and they get duped. If not ask yourself this honest question, in today's FX like right about now £100 = CLP99261.70, 1 GBP= 992.62. Meaning teh Chilian Money is nxt to nothing cos a £100 is N1200 right now. Brazil has a higher weight than Chile as the Brazilian R is less than R6 to the £££ so you are Beter and well off in Brazil NOW IF YOU LIVE NEAR THE US WHERE £100 IS rs555 AND £1 =RS555. Do you need a magician to tell you they chatting Bullshyyte all day??

One thing I noticed In chile Is how fast they speak Spanish. I was even doubting my Spanish till I met some exchange students from Spain yesterday and the Spanish they speak is just how I learnt and they speak so slow and you can grab all the words easily. But chileans speak very very very very fast and I just got my fourth interview invite to a job I applied to. 15 Likes 1 Share |

ajsans: It is. It's why I am surprised that some fools were abusing Brazil. Brazil even has more tech jobs than Chile and more tech companies. I only came to Chile cause the Chilean passport is better than the Brazilian passport and will enable me to achieve my future plans easily. Everything also exists here in Chile for remote work. Strong internet, electricity supply, PayPal also works here in Chile. If you have western clients, it's very easy to get paid while here. No need for all the hoops like we jump through in Nigeria. 26 Likes 2 Shares |

erico2k2: Where is the job in Nigeria? Why isn't Nigeria enjoying the pecks of being a Chilean? Na by exchange strength? First of all naira and cpl can't trade because there's dollar mediating for them and as far as Chile is geographically, there's little to none business transaction between us. Heck they don't even have their embassy and or consular here... 4 Likes |

LordAdam16: I don't want to derail my guy's thread as I have outlined and posted every piece of evidence to support his choice of Chile, considering his final aim - the United States. The visa that demon screams about is the L1 visa which anybody anywhere can get, provided s/he work for a company which has branches and offices in the US. Even in Nigeria, people get that visa direct through a transfer to the US branch. However, it targets only senior employees, not entry level staff. Two, fewer companies are operating in Nigeria, multinational or indigenous, with branches/offices in the US compared to Chile. So, the chances of someone getting into such a company in Chile are higher than in Nigeria, and the chances increase when the population is factored. However, an L1 visa is ranked low compared to H1B1 because literally any Chilean and Singaporean with a bachelor's degree can apply to jobs in the US and does not need to follow the standard H1B route most foreigners use to be sponsored to work in the US. Thus, through the H1B1 visa, Chileans and Singaporeans have an unrestricted route to work in the US. That makes the Chilean passport very powerful, as I explained here: Gerrard59: Tensa20 is doing the right thing at the right time because when Indians discover Chile, they would flood the system and take advantage of it. I recall Tensa20 showing me a video where an Indian explained the benefits of the Chilean passport, yet Indians mocked her. The current H1B visa system is pure tumbo-tumbo. International students are forced to return home without an opportunity to work in the US, considering the cost of an American education borne by foreigners. Recently, I watched a video where a Japanese male returned to look for jobs in Japan, and later get transferred to the US because of its high salaries. This would be through the L1 visa and it is easier since literally any company doing business in Japan, indigenous or MNC, has a US branch/office/factory. He could not get a job in the US due to the lottery system of the H1B. The visa has 85000 slots, of which 65000 are for BSc holders only. Meanwhile, the number of applicants would soon nack 1000000. The time it takes companies to employ a H1B holder can be up to a year. These are facts which are scattered on the Internet, so when demons mock OP for his choice especially coming from Nigeria, it really annoys me. The US embassy is denying fully funded Nigerian applicants visa. To get a visa interview date is 2025. To fast track it, applicants pay a bribe of at least half a million naira. People lament these things on Facebook. Visa interview o as an interview does not guarantee visa issuance. In fact, due to the difficulty of getting sponsorship to work in the US, the number of Nigerian students studying in Canada has surpassed that of their counterparts studying in the US. Indians working in the US are warning their compatriots to opt for Canada, get citizenship and apply to work in the US via the TN visa (which I also explained). OP has done his research crossing all Ts and dotting iS. I have learned much about immigration policies from him, even more than I knew. He is doing it right, and I surely believe he would achieve his dreams when the time comes. My own be say, he should be petty when that time comes. Be very petty. Don't forgive or forget, hold that grudge and gloat at them. 23 Likes 7 Shares |

tensazangetsu20: The same way, he met illegal migrants from Nigeria who tried to emigrate to the US from Brazil via the Darien gap. If those Nigerians had a BSc, and know a bit of Portuguese, nothing would stop them from getting a job in Brazil, save money and move to the US via a structured and legal process. tensazangetsu20: To be fair, he has the right to comment since it is a free-to-comment thread. The best you do is ignore the demon else your thread go be like that of DanielHouston. Update as usual, but never forget to be petty, I beg of you. 8 Likes 1 Share |
