I-94s – Wii haz um
In: Immigration
23 Aug 2008After 12 hours on the road, 20 minutes in Canada (well, Quebec), and a night in a really crappy hotel room, we are back home, with freshly minted I-94s.
In the immigration office, they were hesitant to hand us the I-94s because we still have valid H1-Bs. I had to insist that they give us them [...]

On July 20, the family crossed over the border back into the US after attending Samantha’s grandmother’s funeral in Toronto. It had been a great weekend, a chance to get reacquainted with Samantha’s extended family and introduce the boys to some of these folks.
We crossed the border at the Peace Bridge, and got an Immigration [...]

Enemy Alien Status: Uncertain
1 Sep 2006I just remembered something this morning. Starting October 7, 2006, I will be officially a man without a Visa. My final H1-B renewal expires on October 6, 2006, and although they have applied for an extension, and I am at some indeterminate point supposed to get a Green Card, I will be of no status [...]

I DON’T WANT TO WORK FOR YOUR COMPANY!
Lisa Haneberg posted a great article on this today.
The problem with me and my resume is that there is [...]
Bill Gates: Bill, the RED pill, not the blue one (H1-B Visas)
In: smp
27 Apr 2005Bill:
Now Bill, I almost sent you to go join Steve in the Bad Boy Billionaire Box (B3 Box) because I thought you wanted to cut back on H1-B visas. [here]
Then I re-read the article, and realized that C|Net was making it seem like you wanted to bar smart folks like me from coming to the [...]
Jeremy Wright Lives My Nightmare
In: smp
16 Mar 2005Jeremy Wright of Ensight, and other fine blogging sites, had a nightmare run-in with the Department of Homeland Security at a border crossing.
I have never had an encounter like the one he had, but as a Canadian living in the US for the past six years (with valid TN-1 and H1-B visaa) I still get [...]

Immigration: Thoughts on the Green Card Process – A Personal Story
In: Canada| Commentary| Immigration

I can’t claim to be an expert on how Canada processes new immigrants, but [...]
