H1B.... with the option to apply for Green Card.....

wife will be H4.....thats also another prob. she's working with Emirates now as Crew. So if she goes tehre she will be a dependent and no opportunity to work unless she gets a work permit....which is a long shot.

hi.. to be honest.... 1) no higher ed = no residency = no qualifications = low paying job (i.e. waiter/reception/concierge = no money to save = whats the point?. heck even ppl with degrees are having a tough time.... 2) you'll have to compete with the south asians and south east asians for the job.....

boys and girls.... have u guys stop to think if that dude is worth 9k? :). No offence tdr2 but to me Senior Software Engineer is just a fancy title. It really depends on the size of the company and what sort of expertise tdr2 has to offer. 9k is decent for a lot of ppl. they make do with sharing acc...

dodgeek

the thing is for a Malaysian passport, we can't stick them 2 together. There is a built-in security chip for each passport and when i go back to Malaysia, it works like the E-gate where i put the passport into a machine and it gets scanned.

dodgeek
