Also look for hot markets. Where I live (Charlotte) it's hard not to find a job. The Fortune 40s here are growing, Honeywell are moving in, and we have SunState expanding their operations. I work in Fortune 40 and, for some roles, we only get 1-2 candidates applying: good candidates are...

Always lots of success stories in Oceania. I recall only one decline in the time I've been here and that person didn't meet the education / work experience requirements.

We stayed at the Westin, which was remarkably cheap and within walking distance.

Yes you have to carry it everywhere. Some people carry a photo copy instead of the real thing, but I just carry mine with me.

There's nothing out there and there's no information? She might want to learn how to google lol.

Also, file your taxes.

For us, it was less than an hour from start to finish. Majority of the time is spent getting through security and getting up to the consulate. How long it takes to get your passport back depends. I've heard of Sydney people getting theirs back the next day. We were Melbourne. Interviewed on...

@robbo1 and @Aidyn , the interview is like a sad balloon deflating slowly in the corner lol. I was hoping the Land of Hope and Glory would play. But nope, nada. You're approved and then you leave.

If you've never used your married surname, and haven't legally changed it / used your married surname, I don't imagine it would be a problem.

Re the immunization, you can get a blood test to determine which diseases you have immunity to. You can get it through your local GP and then present that to the panel doctor who can determine what else you might need. That way, you're not getting immunized for things you have have an...

Charlotte is a great town. Big enough to have the amenities and infrastructure, but small enough still that it's not crazy expensive or crowded. There are bad parts you don't go near (especially after dark), but that's the same for any city (I wouldn't travel to Dandenong any time of day when...

When people ask me why I moved here, I tell them adventure. If nothing else, it starts the conversation about being brave, being able to take risks, being resilience, being good under pressure: all of which are skills people look for. Happy to help if I can. I live and work in Charlotte and...

The US does its own checks anyway, which is why it's better to be completely transparent. We don't know what information gets shared but we know it does, and there's a good possibility the US already knows of crimes committed even without the police check.

There are people who've gotten through with Code 35. But Code 33 is the one you should have because it includes all offences (both spent and unspent) and that's what the consulate prefers. Depends on your tolerance for risk. There's a chance you go into AP with a Code 35 check if the CO is...

Not usually a problem as Susie said. We had the same issue. Made sure it was corrected in the DS260. All good.

You are awesome and this is the best news I've had all week (which is saying something since I had cheesecake for lunch today).

AFP Check. Code 33 (which includes spent and unspent offences). No need for fingerprint check so long as the AFP check includes all known names.

They won't care about your loan.

There is no processing of the medical. They just read it during your interview and by read it, I mean they make sure all the papers are there and that everything has been filled in.

We did reapply for the following year just in case. Doesn't hurt.
