Hi all, has anyone flown virgin atlantic round trip from US to Lagos with expired GC and extension letter? |
Re: Living In The USA - Life Of An Immigrant Part 1 by Seunblack7070: 3:03am On Mar 28 |
vivysparkles: I have never flown virgin atlantic before, but I don't think you should have any issue, provided you have the "expired GC" and the extension letter with you . The only issue you might have is , you might be delayed a little bit, because they might want to verify the authenticity of the extension letter. I hope this helps? 1 Like |

Americans have many jokes about life in Europe; but let's be honest: it's almost impossible not to give in to temptation when living in France. Eiffel Tower, Lovers' Bridge, summer cafes, fresh croissants and excellent French cuisine; it sounds like heaven on earth. France has always welcomed immigrants from all over the world. Available data shows that as of 2021, immigrants make up up to 10% of the country's population; up from 6.5% in 1968. This figure seems small until you realize that most other European countries are much more homogeneous. In Poland, for example, only 5% are immigrants. The governments of the United States and France have had a few disagreements here and there, but overall they have remained staunch allies. In fact, a 225-ton copper statue stands in New York City as a testament to the eternal friendship between the people of both countries. And as a result of these relations, there was a steady flow of immigrants in both directions. The article https://www.theurbancrews.com/travel/immigration-france/ makes it clear that France will be more accepting of immigrants than the United States.

No one can deny that the United States is a country of hustle and bustle; it's part of his personality and one of the key reasons why he's so good. However, sometimes you just want to take a break from it all and relax a little to enjoy fine cuisine and great wine. |

Hi everyone, My husband and 2 children currently UK citizens but we’re moving to Houston Texas to start afresh. Please does anyone currently live in Texas and can show us the ropes and help us with this massive transition. My husband is a Business Analyst and I’m a pharmacist. How easy would it be for us to secure jobs there? Please bear in mind we’ll be coming in with green cards? Pls I’d really appreciate any advise that’ll help in terms of jobs, childcare, good church community preferably RCCG and of cos where we can get some good and cheap Naija food. Thanks in advance |

tayeby78: Hi, Houston Texas is an ideal place to start life afresh especially as immigrants. The city has a laaarge population of Africans particularly Nigerians so intergrating should not be a problem. In terms of housing, it would depend on if you are looking to buy or rent, for rentage, try look for zip codes with good schools for the kids (this is very important). Read their reviews on google and you may call the schools ahead for more information. Jobs, should not be too much of a hassle since you are coming in with green cards. Scouting around for data analysis/business analysis jobs, there are quite a few out there. Fir your hubby, he may need to re-certify or something like that if he wants to practise in the pharma field. Overall, your choice of Texas is a good one. I once attended a party in houston that the next building is filled with NIgerian churches, from ground up to the 3rd floor. That tells you that Nigerian churches litters every where. lol All the best ! 1 Like |

Hezzyluv: Hey 🤠 1. There are many Avenues (Visa types) you can use to secure United States visa but the most common two are F-1 (study) and B-1/B-2 (visiting &Tourism) visas. 2. In the case of your brother , the kind of visa that sport men/women usually use to secure US visa is P-1 (entertainment) visa and if at all the Judo visa stuff is genuine, then your brother should be process along with Judo team. Anything sport should not be an individual process. 3. If the person that is processing the visa is transparent to your brother in the process , eg your brother knows the team or club he is going with , your brother have access to email correspondence and your brother can verify his invitation letter to attend the sporting event then you should be fine . 4. The last aspect is that your brother must attend a visa interview physically at the United States embassy. If the agent says otherwise and only demanded your brother's travel passport then you should be careful . 90% of all kinds of United States visa needs physical appearances inside the USA embassy for 1st timers. 5. Just be careful and be certain that the agent carries you along. Best Wishes 🙏 |

tayeby78: You'll be fine. You'll drive a lot in Houston so . Houses are huge lots of space. African stores are plenty. Weather can get really really hot..like Maiduguri hot in the Summer. Pace yourself for work for work. Try agencies first to get some contract work for US experience then full time roles would be easier Check if you need any additional certifications to work as a pharmacist. Lots of work for pharmacists in hospitals, at pharmacies or even in Big Pharma which is not bad if you are sales inclined. You can look for ppl with you degree on LinkedIn who are working in the US. |
