   I am sure that the US embassy is just protecting your interest, I am just wondering what your employer did to make the embassy react that way. I have to admit this is way out of my league, seeking the help of a professional will probably be a better...

   MOBITZ replied to Skycathe7210's topic in International

   Do you have relatives in US, you have your visa and you are good to go, if your employer have some issues with the US embassy, i dont think they will grant you a US visa. they would have addressed the issue when they interviewed you in the Embassy. C...

   MOBITZ replied to Bitoy123's topic in International

   I support Bitoy all the way, If you want to be a nurse and go to Philippines to get your BSN degree, go ahead. I think that is a wise move. We have a lot of universities that offer a good nursing program. My friend who is a clinical instructor in Man...
