Dear Sir:
I want to purchase your do it
by yourself package and to file my Green Card application.
I have 4
journal publications in ASCE Journal of Bridge Engineering and ASCE
Journal of Transportation engineering and 1 conference proceedings. My
research has been accepted in national standard (AASHTO LRFD Bridge
Design specifications) as an amendment. I am reviewer to the ASCE
Journal of Bridge Engineering. I am Licensed Professional Engineer (PE)
and Ledership in Energy and Environmental Design Accredited
Professional.
I am PhD from UT Arlington In Civil Engineering (Fall 2008). I have 10
years experiences in the engineering field out of which about 6 years
for Government. What category do you recommend for green card. Am I
eligible for EB1? Does EB2-NIW needs to wait for priority date to be
current. I am confused as in FAQ it says I 485 can be filed
concurrently? whereas in another question it says priority date needs
to be current. Your guidance will be highly appreciated.
Thanks you very much again.
Your kind response will be appreciated.
***** Email from Liang on 12/18/2010
Dear William,
I had contacted you before
about best option for me to apply for green card on my own. I plan to file green card through EB-1a or
EB-1b with by DO IT Yourself package. Could you please give me some advice after you review my attached resume?
Is EB-1a or
EB-1b the best choice for my case? I don’t have many publications since
2007 because our company does not allow us to publish anything due to
proprietary reason. I am working in an engineering department of our
company but I am still doing some research work. My previous title is
“electrochemist” but now it changes to “manager of product
development”. Am I eligible for EB-1a or EB-1b?
You website
says “the USCIS may deny your Adjustment of Status (I-485) or even
revoke permanent residency after an Adjustment of Status (I-485) is
granted”. So I have to work in the same area after my EB-1a is granted.
How do we know our future? If I get green card next year, do I have to
find a job with this limitation? Can I file green card with my family
together?
Thank you very much for your help?
Best regards,

Dear Sir/Madam,
I hit upon
your website while searching for green card application procedures and
information. I am very much impressed with the testimonials on your
website. My case is a bit different than others. My current employer is
filing for PERM labor certification and I have been asked to bring
employment letters from my previous company.
My previous
employer is willing to send me an employment verification letter that
shows my salary history and title held in my position but unwilling to
provide details on job duties/responsibilities although asking
repeatedly. Is a letter with this details mandatory at any point during
green card process? Can my current employer authenticate it or are
there any alternate means to this.
I would like to apply for green card
under EB1/EB2 category. I am looking forward for your sincere advice on evaluation of my
eligibility for the same. Please find my CV attached herewith.
Please let me know. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Dear Customer Service,
I am very interested in the packages in your company. I also want to
confirm with you whether using Advance Parole (based on pending I-485)
makes H1b status invalid. I did not apply for my green card yet. I was
planning on applying last year, but decided to postpone it, to build a
better CV. I might now qualify under all of EB1-EA, EB1-NIW, and
EB1-OR, so I am investigating my best options.
I have a PhD
from a top US university, and am currently in H1B status, working as a
post-doc for another top US university. I may start as a tenure-track
faculty member at a major private US university in August 2011, which
is why the EB1-OR option is now possible for me too (but previously was
not, as my employer does not sponsor post-docs - which is why I did not
buy the EB1-OR package last year). I was happy with your guides (so
far), so I thought buying the EB1-OR would be a good investment.
I am simply a guy trying to get his GC. This process is hard enough already.
Thanks in advance for your time and response.

Dear GreenCardApply Service:
I wrote to
you a while back. I thank you for responding so promptly last time. I
am a Doctoral Candidate at a University. I am an international student
(India) on F-1 Visa and planning to join same university as a research
associate after my Ph.D.
I have
several publications in international journals and conferences.
Additionally, I reviewed papers of several international journals and
received awards. Do you think I can apply for green card as EB1? Do you
think nationality (Indian) will affect the time period required for
processing my green card application (EB1)?
Kindly let me know.
Thank you.
***** Email from Verma on 11/6/2010
William,
I am thinking
of buying your NIW do-it-yourself package. but I have some questions
and wondering the package will help me. I like to get your assessment
on my case, options I have and fee estimations in some services. I am
on H1-B for 2.5 years after getting a U.S. graduate degree. I am now
weighing three career options, but need your advice on how each affects
my green card future.
I move to
another job, still as engineer in a very similar area If my NIW and
EB1A both get approved AFTER I start the new job, will they be
negatively affected when I file I-485 in future? If NIW and EB1A not
working out, when I start my new job, can my new EB2 LC filed by new
employer still use my old PD?
I am also applying Business and Law schools in U.S.
If I enroll a school, is F-1 still possible after I have applied green card?
What visas could I use to get enrolled? How much does it cost to retain your service?
Assuming NIW/EB1A approved (before I enroll), will my future I-485 be negatively affected?
So What can I do now? and can
I get a help from you? Thank you very much.

Dear William,
I am
currently working as a Research Scientist at a University. I am a
foreign Science graduate subject to the J-1 visa two-year home country
residence requirement. I am in the process of J-1 waiver application
for the two-year home country residence. After the J-1 waiver approval,
what are possible options for a me to apply for U.S. green card status?
I went
through the website. But still I am not sure which category will best
fit to my application. I am more interested to apply in the
EB1-Extraordinary Ability category. I am attaching my CV. If you could
kindly donate some of you most valuable time to review it and give me
an advice I will order that particular package. Thank you in advance
for your help.
Thanks and regards.

Hello,
I am unsure which DIY package I should order or if I qualify to apply?
(i.e. I need to be in the US already or have a job offer)
My situation: I'm an UK citizen and born in UK, I've a Ph.D. (2009) and
Masters degree in Microelectronic and Software engineering, and keen to
pursue an academic or engineering career in the US. With the scope of
my research in the UK, my work leads in its area, with relevant
publications and has raised 3 terms of funding at the $1m level from
the UK and EU under the supervision of my Professor with involvement of
large microelectronic corporations.
The last of
which we came first in the whole of the UK out of 110 applications for
funding to develop technology for 1 year to test commercialization. I
developed this solely and I also hold the UK patent in hand with my
current university for this in my area covering a unique technology,
the international & US patent are pending. This project is now
drawing to an end, my university is pursuing outright sale of the
technology rather than a start up. I also previously worked for SHARP
European Oxford Research Labs in their microelectronics division.
Kind Regards.

Dear Williams,
Thank you very much for your very helpful web site.
I have MS /
PhD in Mechanical Engineering from UNC Charlotte, NC. I have 2 Journal
papers as first author and 2 as a second author, few conference papers,
1 US Patent approved and 1 International Patent pending. My area of PhD
research was Preservation of 'Donation after Cardiac Death' Livers for
transplantation.
During the
course of PhD, I passed SAP certification. I was unlucky to not to find
a research job in industry so I took job as SAP BI consultant. For past
2 years, I am working as a SAP BI consultant, which has nothing to do
with my research work. However, I am highly motivated to pursue my
research interest in liver preservation. Due to visa problems, I don't
have free hands to carry on my research interest.
I request you
to guide me, if I am a suitable candidate for EB2 National Waiver
application (by my self and not by my current employer).
Thanking you for your time and help,
Best regards.

Hi, William,
I got green
card 4 years ago under the category of EB1-EA with your help of the
great DO-IT-YOURSELF package, and now planning to apply for
citizenship. I understand there will be finger print invitation after
few months of submitting the application, and the total process take,
at least, 6 months. My question is the following:
Is there any problem with international travel once I submit the
citizenship application? Is there any problem with international travel after finger print is
completed?
Although I am aware that you deal only with green card, I believe I can
have an authentic information from you on citizenship questions. Thank you.
Regards.
***** Email from Mikhaylov on 9/16/2010
Hi,
You have been helping me all
the way through our green card application. Thank you! I have filed
application following your instructions. I just wanted to know your advice for the following questions:
I do have a job offer but I have not heard from the USCIS regarding my
I-140 in fact, they sent a letter to my former employer responding to
our call to the USCIS, telling that we should have a reply in about 6
months. To work with the new employer I will apply to get a new O-1
visa. Is this new visa putting in jeopardy my I-140?
Do I need to
replace my I-140 to put the new employer or can I wait for a response
to the current and pending I-140 and then proceed with the change of
the employer? Based on some of your answers in your website, looks like
the I-140 would not be in jeopardy as long as my current employer does
not withdraw the request, right?
If I use my common sense, the
issuance of a new O-1 should not jeopardy my I-140 because I would have
a job offer that should be considered permanent job offer.
Best regards and looking forward to hear from you!
***** Email from Karki on 9/5/2010
Hi Dr William,
As a Post Doctoral Associate in a University, I have to admit I was
attracted by the many testimonials suggesting that Do-It-yourself program
seems to work for some, if not all. Nevertheless, truth be told I am still
feeling the waters, so to speak. I am on H1B and its 3 years extension has
just been approved. My family including spouse and older two children are
on H4, while the youngest child was born in the states last year. I have
been offered by my current employer to apply for NIW status including the
attorney fees up to $5000 dollars. He does not want me to quit his
laboratory where I am a post-doc because I am vital to his almost half of
the research projects that is funded by the NIH.
But I want to apply for the
green card (NIW) on my own, including the expenses incurred in the
process. So, I have been researching in the market and I have been asked
for fees ranging from $2,000- $15,000 by consultants and law firms. And
with 4 dependents on a post-doc salary, I don't have enough to run the
household much less for these ridiculous fees. I don't want to take my
employer's offer either because that will inhibit me from quitting this
job in search for a better one. I would be obliged to work longer for the
employer if the offer were to materialize.
So, in the midst of all this I
came across your excellent website, I had seen it before (long time back,
maybe last year) but never thought of trying it seriously.
Therefore, here I am writing you for your advice. I am on H1B, post-doc,
received my PhD in life science in the USA and have been in US. I have a
reasonable number of peer reviewed scientific journal publications (
around 10) and several abstracts and oral presentations in national
meetings etc. I have been advised that I might have chance with the NIW
program, so the question to you is, is this a reasonable approach and
would you advise me to apply using your Do-It-Yourself package?
Thank you in advance.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you very much for your
wonderful web site and J1 Waiver Application information. I am a J-1
holder and I will complete my MS degree in Computer Science this semester.
My DS2019 is still valid till September next year. I got married here to a
Green Card holder who is also a nurse.
I have applied for advisory
opinion and it was confirmed that 2-year HRR (2-year home country service)
applies to me because my course is in the skills list of my country. I am
NOT being sponsored with US or my home country government
money. I am however frustrated as I don't know the way I can change my J-1
to either work visa or Green Card. I heard about no-objection
process, but I am not sure if my company (in my country) will be ready to
sign such letter for me. I urgently need your help and I want to know if
you can help me overcome this barrier with your "Complete Do-It-Yourself Package for J1 Waiver Application"
Looking forward to reading from you.
Thank you.

Could you please tell me: 1) a

I am your customer, I ordered
PERM Labor Certification package from you before. I have been looking at
your site for years, and see that many people are satisfied with your
service judging from the testimonials.
I got approved labor
certification last month, I want to go into I-140 / I-1485 application
based on the approved PERM Labor Certification (Thank you very much for
the Labor Cert. approval!) But as the economy is not good, my company is
trying to file bankruptcy chapter 7.
I am still working here, and
people said I would be still working in my company even though they file
the bankruptcy because we need to finish our work for clients. I know
bankruptcy affects on I-140 and I-485. Is there any difference according
to the chapter 7? After filing bankruptcy I’m still belong to this
company to work.
I heard I can move the company 180days after I filed I-485. Is this true?
Please respond my email. I
will really appreciate it.

Hi William,
I am an assistant professor in mathematics at a University. I do not have an
impressive list of publications but all my papers are in the top journals
of the fields which probably speaks for the quality. With the help of the very
useful information I got from you, I want to start my I-140 petition through
"Outstanding Researcher" (EB-1).
My second H-1B visa expires next year August and I am thinking about
applying for the Green Card. The problem is that during the summer
and 2010 I will not be in the country. Do you think that I have a chance of
getting the card by the end of this year?
From what I gather I need to fill
the outstanding researcher or professor but I would like to double check with
you on this.
Thanks very much for the support.
***** Email from Yan on 6/26/2010
Dear Sir/Madam,
With your great help, I have applied
for a NIW at March and am expecting to get news about it within the next
month or so. If it's approved, I will move forward and submit an I-485
application based on the NIW.
I am interested in purchasing a DIY kit or EB1-Outstanding Researcher from you,
but I wanted to make sure that it will cover my specific situation.
I currently work as a researcher at an academic institution, but have gotten
a great job offer at a private startup biotech company. They understand my
situation, and are happy to wait for my I-485 based work permit to come in
before the transition. The company is in the exact same field as what I do
now, and my job will be identical to what was described in my NIW petition.
Do you know if, when filing my I-485 via NIW I still need some sort of
"support" declaration from an employer, and if so, should I use
my current employer or my future employer who offered me the job?
Thank you in advance for your help!
***** Email from Rantham on 6/15/2010
Dear William,
I was recently referred to you by an old
client of yours. He had successfully obtained an I-140 approval through
the NIW Category. He suggested that I write to you.
I am
currently in an Emergency Medicine Residency program with J1 visa
sponsored by ECFMG and approaching the end of the first year training.
Due to personal reason, I am planning to enter an ACGME accredited
Hand Surgery Fellowship program that starts from 2010.
In this
situation, is it possible for me to discontinue the current Emergency
Medicine Program and go back to Japan temporarily for one year until 2010,
and re-apply for the "second" J1 visa sponsorship for the hand
surgery fellowship?
My
concern is the Two-year Rule that I am subject to. I am
worried that I must remain in Japan for two years until I become eligible
to apply for the "second J1-visa" for another program (Hand
Surgery) in case I leave the current program and go back to
Japan.
Since
this is extremely important decision to me, I would greatly appreciate if
you could give me the right answer.
Sincerely,

Hi, William.
Before I ask you a question about the
Green Card issue, I would like to thank you very much for your kindness in answering questions in the midst of your busy time.
I am writing to in the hope that you could shed light on an issue that
I am currently facing. I received my Green card last year and
with the great of PERM Labor Certification DIY package and I-140
package. When I started working for my company at any stage neither I
nor them had any sort of written agreement/documentation where by, if I
quit my job with them I was bound to restitute them fully for fees they
paid on my behalf.
My inquiry is, "Is it
possible for my company to impose retroactively a condition? And second
I am bound by law to their condition if my company had no such contract
in the first place?

Customer Service:
Thank you for your very informative
Web site and great services. I have a question regarding the Green Card
application. I am currently under a visa L1B for 2 years.
My employer want to convert my visa to H1B, because they think that if the
Green Card process takes more than 3 years, then I will be able to stay in the
U.S. with H1B (unlimited renewal) instead of running out of my visa L1B.
A friend of mine was under L1A and said that during the whole process of getting the
Green Card, she got a temporary visa that would allow her to stay in the U.S. even if her L1A expires during the duration of the
Green Card process.
I would like to know if L1B visas gives me the same temp visa guarantee
please. In that case, there is no need to worry about running out of
time on the visa L1B. Otherwise, do you think it is possible to convert
my L1B in L1A and then apply to green card?
Thank you very much for answering those questions.

This is the case: I Pastor a Portuguese Church, and we also have a Radio
Station (Licensed by the FCC.). We broadcast in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
I’m in charge of everything here, and I need a person to help me in the
Church, and also on the radio station. Paul is the person I have been
looking for.
Two years ago my wife’s nephew (Paul) came here, from Portugal, to visit us
for 1 month, and he became very interested in what we do. Last November he went
to Israel with us (me and my wife), and a group from our church, and we
developed a very good relationship. Two months ago he came to the USA as a
visitor.
I need a person to run the radio
station. A person who can speak English, Portuguese and Spanish. A person who
knows the Portuguese culture. A person who knows the Bible, because this
is a Christian Ministry. A person who is loyal. Paul has all the

Hello William,
This is the second time I write to you. I just received my first H-1B visa 3
weeks ago with your very helpful answers for my questions.
I do research for Georgetown
University in DC in the area of drug discovery of cancer and central nervous
system agents. I have already talked with several lawyers and decided to do this
Green Card application on my own. I plan to do under NIW, possibly also under
outstanding research, but not sure. My wife can't work now, due to the fact she
hold an H-4 visa along with my two kids.
My first question is: which packets should I by from you for the entire process?
I assume, NIW, I-485. Not sure if I would need to buy for I-140. Is it not
included in the NIW packet? Second: since I have this working visa, does it make
sense to ask for a work permit for me in addition to the one my wife needs?
Thanks in advance for replying. I plan to start this process ASAP.

Dear William,
I received RFE notice for the
National Interest Waiver from USCIS. I will send my check today to order the
RFE package.
Thank you very much for your "do-it-yourself packages". I have a few questions.
When
I applied for the NIW, I was searching a job. It has been passed about
2 years since my application of I-140. Right now I am working as a
faculty member at a university. The school has ranked as the 15th in
our discipline and as the 3rd in more narrowed discipline. My salary
increased last year considerably (10.5%: the highest increase among
assistant professors at our school). Do I have to write about this? Or
I should not write about this because it is not related to national
level interest?
I
have 11 publications (first authors in 7 publications) and 28
presentations at national and international conferences (presenter in
12 of them). I has reviewed articles for three national and
international professional journals (10 for 5 years). I received three
grants (1 from American Heart Association--about $260,000; 1 from a
professional foundation in our discipline--$7,500; 1-postdoctoral
fellowship-$84,000). How do you think and what I should emphasize?
Thank you so much for your consideration.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I emailed before on my friend's
good recommendation few months back, for your excellent service and
packages.
To give a brief background about myself again, I am an
Electrical/Software Engineer in DC at FDA (Food and Drug
Administration) Federal Government. Now, although I was hired by my
department for a civil service position, I am a Canadian citizen. So I
have to get my TN1 renewed every year, which I find really annoying. I
have a Bachelors in Electrical Engineering (from Canadian University on
Scholarship) where I specialized in Software/Systems development.
After graduation I worked for almost 4 years in
Biomedical/Biotechnology field, where I was the lead Systems Engineer
designing software in compliance with FDA software regulation. Now, I
will be finishing up MBA soon (funded by the FDA) and would like to see
what is the best course of action to obtain my green card. Is it EB2
NIW, EB1, etc?. Should I start gathering my references and when can I
apply. Please let me know.
Thank you for your reply

Dear Dr William,
Greetings.
Thank you for having extensive information on Green card. It was very
informative to go through your website. Thank you so much. What a great
advise from your website! My friend and I were getting great
information whenever we have questions. I have some questions for which
I did not find answers directly.
1) I understood from contents that my L1A visa status qualifies me for EB1C green card application. Can this be self
sponsored? What are approximate experiences? Looking at current business down fall employer may not
immediately sponsor.
2) What is the minimum length of Service in USA required before
application? Rest all criterion are fulfilled at earlier employment I
had worked in senior managerial position, current USA employer has more
than 5 years relations with home company etc. What is the expected time
frame for completion of Green Card process?
I would like to know if I qualify for this EB1 C
category and if I should be applying under it, before I order the
"Do-it yourself" package.
Regards

Dear Sir/Madam,
I came across your web site and found it is very informative on the
issue of applying for a Green Card through the National Interest Waiver
category. I would like to purchase a Complete Do-It-Yourself Package
for National Interest Waiver (NIW) Petition. However I just wanted to
make sure that I would qualify for getting such a petition approved.
I
am writing to seek your opinion and guidance with my immigration
issues, and assess which of your Do-It-Yourself packages I can purchase
from you.
I am a CPA, licensed in Virginia, and a
Chartered Accountant (Fellow) of the Association of Chartered Certified
Accountants- UK. I have more than 10 year of progressive work
experience in audit and assurance, financial reporting and audit of
internal controls and have spent this entire time with one of the big 4
Audit Firms. I have lived in the United States on a L1A Visa. And just
as my employer was about to file for my Green Card under EB1-C, the
economy tanked and my employer has had to change plans.
I strongly believe that I am a person of exceptional ability and would contribute to the economy of the United States,
particularly in my field of accounting, where there is a shortage of CPAs.
I was wondering if I could do it myself, either under EB1 Exceptional
Ability or under EB2 NIW. I have attached my resume for your reference.
Please advise which of your packages I could but that would succeed
without the involvement of my employer.
Thank you very much. I look forward to your
response.
With best wishes,

William,
Recently, I purchased PERM labor Certification
package from you service.
I
have a question on filing my PERM labor Certification through my
current employer. I have read everywhere that a position requires
Masters degree OR Bachelors degree + 5 years of experience to come
under EB2 category. My position requires Bachelors degree + 5 years of
experience so I am thinking the position fits under EB2 category.
My concern is if I am qualified to file under EB2 category because I
have a Bachelors and Masters degree in the same field and 3 years of
experience from past employer.
Thanks,

Dear Dr William:
Due to my budget problem, I
had to file NIW myself. Thanks so much for your prompt and informative reply! My research project is funded by
a Medical Institute, a national wide nonprofit medical research organization. I hope it
will help me to qualify for the NIW.
This afternoon I mailed out the NIW application package to Texas
service center. But there is one thing about assembling that is still
hanging over my mind and bothers me.
I used fastener sets to hold together all documents. Because the pins
of fasteners I bought were too short to hold all the documents, I
divided the documents to two parts, and bound them separately to two
piles with the fasteners. Then I stuck the two piles into the mail
package without using rubber bands to hold the two piles together. I am
under the impression that the immigration officials can be sloppy and
often make mistakes like losing documents, misspelling names and
mailing address et al. I am worried that they may lose the pile without
the I-140 form.
Is this something problematic? If so, are there anything I can do? Or I am just worrying too much.
Thanks a lot again and hope you have a
wonderful day!

Dear William,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I
want to order your EB1 - Manager/Executive packages. I will purchase I-485 package right after
that. I am so glad to hear you will mail the package to me on the same day of
my order.
I
am currently working in Europe for an American company. My current
employer is planning to send me back to the US under L1A status and
sponsor my Green Card process.
Can
my Employer file an EB2 petition while I live in my home country in
Europe working for my Employer’s parent company in Europe? Can I start
going through her through the labor Certification or PERM process while
living and working in Europe?
I have a PhD obtained in Europe and 12 years professional experience in
related industry. Do I need to go through the labor certification step?
Do I need to certify my foreign degrees? If yes, how can I get an
accreditation?
Thank you very much again for your first email. I am looking forward to hearing from you
soon.
Kind Regards,

Dear William,
I like the www. greencardapply.com website a lot and have already found it very helpful.
Please
help me with an answer to this question. Briefly: I am an MD, PhD who
worked as a postdoctoral associate for 1 year and now I am a medical
resident in Internal Medicine program, University of Florida on HB1
visa. My plans are to follow a dual position of physician scientist and
I have very very good support among the faculty and physicians at
University of Florida.
I
plan to apply for EB1- EA. I have reasonable good supporting documents
for at least 3 requirements on the check list for application. Can you
tell me if is a good idea for me to apply EB1-EA? My only concern is
that I currently do not work as researcher but as a physician and I
cannot wait to finish my medical training because my visa will expire.
Thank you for your help.
Your kind reply is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

Dear Sir,
I will prepare for the materials for applying I-140 using your DIY
package based
on my frifend's recommendation. I am currently working in one the
largest and well-reputed civil engineering consulting firm. I have a
Ph.D. in Civil Engineering. My current job is not research related,
rather it is design related. By reviewing the criteria for EB-1A, I
believe I qualify for this category. here are some of my key
qualifications:
Appeared in
well-reputed journals/conferences (3 journal & 10+ in conferences);
I have reviewed papers written by others (although I have proof of just
one); I have carried out research and prepared reports for Kansas Dept.
of Transportation funded research project. My professor can verify that
these research projects are my original
work; Other people often cited my papers (as shown on my CV); I won a
scholarship from the Govt. of Japan to purse MEngg at AIT, Thailand
(not sure whether it can be considered something important).
However, the problem
is that I can't collect too many recommendation letters since I am not
in research anymore.
Can I apply for NIW arguing that my current job benefits local and US
economy.? I am a roadway project engineering who designs traffic signal
and roadways. I am quite well known to various local government
agencies (counties and cities) and probably one of the best in this
reason. My company will not sponsor me. However, I will be able to get
recommendation letters from my supervisor and department manager. I
will also be able to have recommendation letters from various people of
the above-mentioned local agencies.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,

Dear Dr William:
I am an assistant professor in mathematics with a Ph.D from MIT and a
post-doc at Northwestern University.
I do not have an impressive list of publications but all my papers are
in the top journals of the fields which probably speaks for the quality.
My
second H1B visa expires next year in
2011 in August and I am thinking about applying for the green card. The
problem is that
during the summer and 2011, I will not be in the country. Do you think
that I have a chance of getting the card by the end f this year?
From what I gather I need to fill the outstanding researcher/ professor but I would like to double check with you on this.
Thanks very much for the support.
