Poate sa-mi explice cineva cum e cu 212(e) "based on skills list." Eu de exemplu am venit in State in 2001 cu un program. Se cheama "work and travel." La vremea respectiva eram studenta la Psihologie in Romania. Am venit pentru 4 luni si am lucrat drept casiera si "hostess" la un hotel. Programul cu care am venit mi-a dat o scrisoare si mi s-a spus ca programul in sine nu intra sub regula 212(e) si ca daca as fi "subject" ar fi "based on my country's requirements." Asta pe mine ma face sa ma gandesc la "basic skills act." Faza e ca nu stiu daca experienta mea ca si...casiera e pentru ce ma vor ei in tara. Cred ca ma complic pentru ca avocata zice ca trimite actele pt. green card, dar in acelasi timp vreau sa inteleg cum sta cu "Skills Act." Daca ma vor inapoi in tara ma vor pentru "skills in Psychology" sau pentru..."skills earned on J1"/casiera??? Stie cineva?

Scrie in pasaport sau pe DS "subject to 212e" sau "the two-year rule does apply"? Daca da, ai nevoie de waiver. Daca nu, dar tot nu esti sigura, poti cere "advisory opinion". Poti gasi informatii pe site-ul oficial www.travel.state.gov.

Succes,

Alessia

Hello,

Mi se pare ca România face parte din ţările cu steluţă care inseamnă că skills list reuneşte toate meseriile posibile. Dacă nu scrie pe pasaport si nici pe documentul Ds2019 că eşti subiectă acelui act 212e nu inseamnă că nu eşti. Dacă eşti româncă şi ai venit cu J1 eşti sub regula cu doi ani acasă.
Iată din lista respectivă:

1G. Tourism and Travel
9P. Hotel and Motel Management

Dacă(americanii...) te vor in ţara, ta te vor pentru orice skill ai avea...

Baftă

Ciao, din nou,

As dori sa fac o precizare. Nu toti cei veniti cu J1 (e adevarat, poate majoritatea), sunt subject to 212e. Am o prietena care a ramas aici anult trecut, are viza H, si nu a avut nevoie de waiver. A venit ca profesoara cu J1 in 2003. Si ea si-a facut probleme ca poate e doar o greseala, dar se pare ca a fost norocoasa. Daca a fost o scapare din partea celor de la ambasada, asta nu pot afla. Cert e ca nu a avut treaba cu waiverul. Spre deosebire de altii...

Eu inca mai sunt printre care deocamdata inca mai asteapta... si spera ca va fi bine. Manu, ceva surprize placute recent? Ca la mine inca nu a aparut nimic in cutia postala. Dar sunt pe site-ul oficial. in pending. NO a venit si ea cam de multisor... 9 aprilie...

Bafta,

Alessia

Pe ultimul meu DS scria ca nu sunt subject to 212E, iar pe viza ca sunt.  Cred ca primeaza viza, pe DS e "preliminary endorsement blabla" (dc nu e asa mi-am facut degeaa waiver:) ).

Sarumana
Inainte de a da curs procedurii de waiver, cei de la WRD verifica daca esti subiecta actului. Asta e independent de advisory opinion pe care o cer unii. Daca nu ai primit nici o notificare zicand ca esti exempta waiverului trebuie ca nu ti l-ai facut degeaba.

Ha ha...era o gluma cu facutul degeaba, am stiut ca imi trebuie...Succes!

Slash83, am intrebat de curiozitate ca nu eram lamurita cum sta cu skills list si la care skills se refera. Avocata mea mi-a zis ca cei care vin prin programele de "Work and Travel" nu intra sub ...sanctiunea 212(e). Are 20 de ani de experienta in immigration si deci am incredere in ea. Intre timp a trimis actele pt. green card si sper ca totul sa fie O.K.

On the other hand, however...Prima data cand am venit in State, am venit prin Camp Counselors U.S.A. (CCUSA) si firma asta sponsoriza (intitial, cand au aparut in Romania pentru prima data in 2000) persoane care vroiau sa lucreze in tabere ca si camp counselors. Din cate intelerg, "camp counselors" primesc 212(e). In 2001, cand am venit eu si cand ei au deschis un alt program (de Work and Travel) sub firma mare (CCUSA) si ei nu au verificat daca eu aplicasem sa merg in tabara sau prin "work and travel." Prin urmare, au pus la toata lumea ca sunt "subject." In 2002 si 2003 am venit cu alte doua programe tot de "work and travel" si nu mi-au pus "subject." In concluzie, eu merg pe mana avocatei. Intre timp am facut cerere pt Ministerul Educatiei din Ro pentru scrisoarea cum ca n-am primit bursa etc. si celelalte acte "just in case."

Bafta la toata lumea care e in "pending" pentru waiver!

P.S. O sa continui sa citesc despre waiver ca deja ma...pasioneaza. Recent am fost acceptata pentru un doctorat in Psihologie. Daca nu ma acceptau, chiar ma batea gandul sa merg la law school si sa devin immigration lawyer :)))

Intr-adevar, am gasit pe cateva situri despre SWT (summer work and travel) ca nu face parte din regula asta. Aici de exemplu http://sofia.usembassy.gov/j1_faq.html in josu paginii. Cul! ai noroc.
