Any country licence if you have then you only need a basic written test that can practice from

Remember all Sri Lankans; the local guys working in US embassy Colombo are really not helpful, maybe they don't like you are getting a free visa. Always try to find a mistake from you

Did you certified your Birth certificate & Marriage certificate from foreign ministry???
 
Question for sri lankan winners, .regarding the birth certificate the certified copy issued from the district office is ok ?do they accept that? .

Getting certified from the foreign ministry is not a big thing.everyone just get it pls.just need a day off thats all.

hi nausha182 and britsimon,

I'm from Sri Lanka. 1st of all I do not have A/L (only have 1 pass from Maths stream). but I do have a BSc (Hons) Computing Degree form recognize UK university with Class (3 Year Degree) and currently I'm working as Software Developer - Web Application for more than two years. What do you think of my situation? please give your honest answer.

Thanks

I think you have chances on working experience rather A/L results as a software developer your job zone is 4 so no worries ur in for well prepare yourself with experience letters from the company while attending the interview. All the best Go lucky for the Interview your IN.

Thanks you very much for your encouragement reply and also the accurate information.
 
HI

what are the interview questions in Colombo Embassy , I am afraid what you mentioned below regarding local people in Colombo embassy, why they are they doing like this for same country people. so we need to handle them nice & carefully.

Our interview will be end of August. we have preparing for both ways (Education & experience as a pre- school teacher)

CN -AS

Basically you require the original BC and the original translations. If you have lost the originals and getting a copy from the office in Colombo, I think it's the registry of birth certificates, will issue you the yellow one and not a white photocopy paper with a stamp on it. So make sure it's an duplicate or second copy but not a photocopy certified by the divisional secratriate.
 
Not true. All Sri Lankans will need to taking a driving test to get a Drivers License.

Very true! You need to pass the written exam and have the learner permit for at least a month and then do a road test and pass it to get a license and as a permanent resident you can't drive on an international driver permit so be careful guys
 
How much do u need to have for a month in order to have a good life in New York ? Also how much we can earn for a month by doing a simple job in New York??

New York is expensive ! The minimum wage is low and tax is higher. So you basically need 3-4k a month to life comfortably in a good neighborhood. If your planning to work minimum wage to get started id say go to New Jersey
