The U.S. has created a list of countries whose citizens currently cannot receive immigrant visas. Does this mean that, for example, if a person gets a job in the USA, they can no longer apply for a U.S. visa?

I am looking for job sponsorship to leave my country, please dm me or respond with any possible details or information

Well, I’m applying for jobs in the states to see if by any chance I get a TN sponsor (I have a bachelor’s in economics from the top university here and some experience in the Mexican space agency and the Senate), but I have one personal question which is, how is the treatment for Mexicans that basically are white in the current social landscape?

If anyone is curious, I’m half mexican, half Cuban, with northern european ancestry, but I’m mixed at the end of the day.

Hi everyone,

I am a 22-year-old from Romania, and my goal is to legally relocate to the United States with my family (my wife and our newborn baby). We want to do this the right way and build a life there, ensuring our child can eventually go to daycare and kindergarten in the US.

However, we face a few challenges regarding the typical immigration routes, so I am looking for some realistic advice or success stories from people who were in a similar situation.

Our Background:

Age: 22 (Both me and my wife).

Dependents: One newborn child.

Skills/Education: We do not have specialized university degrees, and neither of us works for a multinational company, so an L-1 internal transfer is out of the question.

English level: Fluent/Very good. Communication won't be an issue.

The Routes We Are Considering:

1 H-2B Visa (Moving/Logistics/Hospitality): I am currently looking for US employers (specifically in the moving/logistics sector) who are willing to sponsor an out-of-country worker for a seasonal contract. My plan would be to work hard, prove my value, and eventually discuss long-term sponsorship.

2 EB-3 Unskilled Visa: I know this is a permanent residency (Green Card) route that doesn't require high specialization, but it takes a few years to process.

Our Main Questions for the Community:

H-2B with Family: How realistic is it to bring a spouse and a newborn on an H-4 dependent visa for a seasonal job like moving? Does the community recommend trying to secure the H-2B first alone, or is it manageable to handle housing for a small family on a seasonal budget?

H-2B to EB-3 Transition: Has anyone here successfully transitioned from an H-2B seasonal position to an EB-3 Unskilled permanent sponsorship with the same employer? How did you approach the conversation?

Daycare/Kindergarten: For those who moved with very young children on temporary visas, how difficult was it to enroll them in local daycares or early education programs?

We are fully aware that immigration is a long, expensive, and difficult process, but we are young, driven, and willing to do the heavy lifting.

Any insights, agency recommendations, or reality checks are highly appreciated! Thank you!

Hello. I live in Europe (Portugal), I’m 19 years old, I’m a guy, and I hate living here—partly because I’m sick of socialism, but that’s not the only reason.

Since I love the United States, I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish, I’m thinking of emigrating to your wonderful country, but I don’t know how to go about it—especially since I haven’t finished high school, I don’t have any specialized training, I’ve never worked, I don’t have anyone in the U.S., and I don’t have much money (it’s impossible to save up in this lousy socialist banana republic). I don’t know how to do it and would like to know how, since no visa seems to fit my situation.

Thank you very much, dear American comrades.

EDIT: Maybe Ohio, North Carolina, or Michigan probably

Hey guys, I graduated college a few months ago, and now have a bachelors in political science. My long term goal is to move to the US, I know it won’t happen instantly but I would love if I could move there ASAP. What is the best pathway? I’ve been applying to multinational companies but have been unsuccessful so far, I’m also considering a masters degree in the US and then using OPT but I don’t have the finances for that right now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, moving to the US is my dream. Thank you

I am a 21 year old female living in London I’m currently in my last year of university studying forensic psychology and in 2027 I want to move to America permanently ( Houston Texas ) Do you think it’s worth it and how would I go about it, also how much money would I need to save up to move out there.

Please I need someone to explain this process for me,I’m already in the US

USED CHATGPT TO ARTICULATE BETTER

I’m a 23-year-old Indian MBBS student trying to decide between staying in India for NEET-PG or pursuing USMLE and moving to the US. While NEET-PG is easier, not complicated and less risky financially, the USMLE offers something much more important to me: freedom and safety.

I come from an abusive, extremely controlling household. My father is violent, manipulative, and has controlled every aspect of my life since childhood—from forcing me into medicine to policing basic things like my WhatsApp profile picture. I’ve spent my whole life pretending to be the “good daughter” because I grew up watching him abuse my mother and fearing what he might do to me if I resisted.

If I stay in India, I fear I’ll never truly escape his control, no matter how successful I become. Moving to the US feels like my only real chance at independence, safety, and living life on my own terms because since US visa is very tough to get, they can’t just come to USA and harm me even if they want to. But I’m conflicted about whether it’s wrong to make such a major career decision primarily as a way to escape abuse rather than purely for professional ambition.

I’m looking for advice from people who escaped controlling or abusive families—about how they planned their freedom, protected themselves, and built independent lives safely.

most europeans moving to the US seem to manage to do it via a internal company transfer, but i was wondering how do you find ways to stay after that? i am in a position to potentially do a transfer and also, in my personal life, get a mexican passport. Could that help me stay longer under a TN visa since its easier/cheaper to get sponsored?

I am an Indian who recently got his green card approved this year. We are not sure if we want to live in usa or move back to India. Most likely we want to stay in India due to parents and other things but want our child who is atoddler to have a chance at american dreams 20 years later. We were thinking of staying somehow for 5 years here and getting the citizenship and then were thinking of returning back to India. Do you all think is it a good idea to give up Indian citizenship and take American considering today's political climate and how things will be 20 years from now.

I'm English (23f) and have been long distance with my American fiance (24m) for 9 years. We was planning to elope in a courthouse in the USA next year on our 10 years together. Thus, starting our immigration process for me to move over to Nebraska.

But recently my army step dad has had the opportunity to bring our family to live in the USA for three years (Washington). Which now this decision might delay my move.

This is very new information to me and i'm grateful to be included in this opportunity. My step father said this opportunity would be a huge leverage and advantage for my moving.

Those who are more knowledgeable, just wondering how would this put me in an advantage? For one, now temporarily moving to the USA. Two, how would this aid my immigration case with my soon husband to move permanently?

edit: My entire family is english. My step dad is not American. It'll be Me, Mum, Step father and My half sibling (Mum + Step dads child).

edit edit more important info: It would be under UK Ministry of Defence, not the government. I'm not sure what that means but regarding to be under 21 he had people in his field who are older than me have been eligible to go to the USA with their family.

Hi, how hard is it to immigrate to the U.S. as a white German male with a masters degree in mathematics?

How did everybody make the decision to go? What obstacles did you face/overcome? How much self doubt did you have?

I'm Australian, 32yo F, no partner or kids, and am seriously considering a job offer in USA (possibly Reno Nevada area). The contract is 2 years with choice to extend on completion, the pay is similar, slightly less to what I get now (not an issue), the time off is less but the job experience is far different to here and exactly what I am craving! There's no telling if it will be a help or hindrance to get work back in Aus when/if I choose to return, but it could be interesting all the same.

My problem is I don't have supportive family or friends and they all hate the US currently (which I understand, but I'm not moving there to begin a political career 🙄). I've always been a big fan of travelling, I love new cultures, new locations and new experiences but everytime I come home and see my family I'm made to feel like there's something wrong with me for always wanting to leave (they're from a small town). I left at 18 and moved around a few different cities and states by myself, currently back in the small town for the last 6 months and feel like it's clouding my ability to make decisions and sense of freedom.

*Edited to say that visa is no issue. My job qualifies for E3, the position is sponsored, there's immigration lawyers supplied by the company to handle it

Hey y’all!

I was looking for a bit of feedback as someone who hasn’t had the chance to see much of the country. I am in the process of transitioning from a job with housing to a work from home job in higher education with a decent amount of required travel.

I am from the northeast and have been here all my life, but the cost for renting here does not feel like a smart investment if I am not required to travel to an office daily. I have always thought about moving out of the region and just don’t really know where to start and am looking for suggestions!

I am not hard pressed on any area and am open to moving wherever feels right, but I primarily am looking for somewhere affordable (apartments under 1.5k monthly), a city or town that has some history attached to it (history enthusiast and was my undergraduate major), somewhere with a local soccer team or some form of sports culture, and somewhere I can settle down and really start life. I’m sure y’all are spread out all across the country, so any suggestions are GREATLY appreciated! Thank you for your time in advance!

Hey Everyone,

Been conversing with my wife significantly about the idea of relocating from Canada to Freedom Country and looking for some advice.

I’m hoping to get some ideas/tips for possible Career Opportunities for myself to enter the USA.

I’m a current LEO (9 years of experience) with the current and last 4 years in SWAT. I personal train on the side as it relates to my Undergraduate Degree in Kinesiology. I’m 35 years old this year and married with no children. My spouse works in Insurance and would probably have an easier time getting employment in her field than I would.

Was hoping to get some suggestions for my situation and I didn’t want to take up too much time.

Appreciate anyone who took the time to read and any advice provided.

Cheers

We have known each other for almost 5 years, we met in Greece while on vacation. Been going back and forth about twice a year since, many fun trips, with some pretty intense loneliness in between. Engaged 1 year ago.

Going through the immigration process now, I’ve been approved as a sponsor (part 1) and now we are doing her part of the K-1 fiancée visa. So much paperwork and waiting, but we are getting closer and closer to the “real deal” living together.

Legal immigration requires patience. I think that’s the point of the immigration front door, to determine: “How badly do you want to legally immigrate? How serious is your love / connection?”

It’s been a long road to this point. Mostly fun and positive, with some long stretches of loneliness and frustration along the way.

It’s getting close now. Heading over to France to see her next week for a couple of weeks, this will be our last “trip” before she moves to the USA full time.

The point of this message is just to say, wherever you are in the LDR journey, try to enjoy it. You can work it out if you are committed enough to make it happen. Finding someone special far from you is not for the faint of heart, and requires a lot of effort. I’m almost done with a 5.5 year LDR, which will end with us being together.

Long time reader of this sub, first time poster. Just wanted to share. Remember, it’s your life, and your timeline! Many people have shared their opinions with me, fortunately all friends and family have supported it. Maybe not such a unique story. But for us, it’s been life changing in a marvelous way. She’s a wonderful woman and our compatibility is very high. Compatibility matters most!

Good luck to all!!! 🍀
