I have one full year left in nursing school, i know that seem like a long time (and it is) but i like to plan ahead because my status is very different from most. i am from Jamaica, but i am presently in nursing school at a private small college in mississippi. i would very much like the option of staying here and work before i go home, and that is where i am having a problem. what are my options?
also, what is the best field to start out in? med surg maybe? thats what i heard, but i'm not really sure. i'm think i would like to move to charlotte NC, but that too is up in the air. i just really need some guidance and some advice.
so to some this up, Where is the best place to start out? what is the salary like starting out? what are my options (being non- citizen)? what area is best to start out in (med-surg? OB? travelling?) i'm just really lost. help please!
i am already here legally, my degree is from the USA, i have a social, i have credit.. why is it so difficult? i would be working honestly and paying taxes.... i just dont understand why it has to be this way...
The US does not use a "skills based" immigration system like many other countries. They focus on family-based immigration. If you do not meet narrow categories for employment-based visas, you're out of luck. It's that hard because noone apart from US citizens has the right to stay in the US.
