CanadaK1 Visa and University Enrollment/Tuition Rates

Hi Guys,

I am just wondering if Sean can start attending college in the US right away after he gets his social security number, or if he needs to wait for a period of time. I know in the US when you move from state-to-state, you have to live in your curent state for 1 year before you can get in-state tuition. Since he is coming from Canada, will be have to pay international tuition (which is ridiculously high) or can he pay in-state since he immigrated on the K1 Visa? Would he need to wait 1 year from AOS or 1 year from the date he activated his Visa?

I doubt he wants to start back to school any time soon, but I'd like for him to finish up. He has a 2 year college degree and I'd like him to get his bachelor's finished.

Thanks!



I came in on a cr-1, but my school based my residency on my wifes! I just had to produce a document proving she had resided in VA for at least 1 yr--think I brought in a copy of her State taxes, and they gave me in state rates! There was another post similar to this on another section of VJ, and it seems to vary from school to school, so one has to contact each school individually to get a response

why not just start it now!! Sooner u start, the better, as it can take awhile!!

CanadaDo I need a Visitor's Visa?
As I have said before and like others--its totally unpredictable! Sometimes they dont even ask you any questions other than what is your purpose of this trip? One has to be prepared of course, and be prepared to be denied entry! Just never LIE, BUT never blab away! Be very direct/short with ur answers
Flames9_RNMaleCanada2010-02-05 16:08:00
CanadaDo I need a Visitor's Visa?
Its a frustrating event as NO ONE can promise you entry into the USA even with the strongest ties to Canada! It all comes down to the Port Of Entry (POE) officer. Many of us had no problems visiting, I never got hassled, but most of us didn't stay for 6 months! Think my longest was 3 weeks. My free advice is offered below in my signature.

CanadaApplying for school on a K1 Visa?
Some schools that are State sponsored sometimes have residency requirements. As one has to live in that state for a year. Some can base that yr long contingency on the USA spouse time in that State.

CanadaWhat size of UPS trailer did u rent?
Yep , read the owners manual!! And prop best idea is to rent a u-haul and tow ur car on the trailer u can rent from them! That was my plan, but I said screw it and sold (or gave away,lol) my car! Friends got a heck of a deal there!!

I had no probs with my U-haul truck--except it was dirty inside and I had to clean it. U-haul has a bit of a rep at time that their trucks are crappy! I told the manager I was traveling a fair distance and i wanted a mechanical sound truck! and he promised it would be!! Make sure u look over the truck before u leave--fluids, tire pressure. I got crappy gas mpg, but i was doing like 70 mph, so thats expected. U can get price estimates on the u-haul website. The milage they give you should be enough, but dont make too many errands, otherwise you will go over!

CanadaCanadian Guilt?
I'm probably in the minority, as i feel we have it easy!! Through my travels have come across a lot of sad situations! I imagine many don't get the opportunity to travel to see their spouse or even communicate daily with the spouse. Here I was back in Canada with everything I needed and more, had a great job, saw my wife every month, (more would be nicer,lol) but really had nothing to complain about. Had food/beer in my fridge, all was good. And I am a very "me" kind of person and not religious in any ways. I just know others have it worse, boo hoo for me that the process isnt super fats just because I'm Canadian! lol But that my opinion which I'm sure isn't shared my 99% of others,lol

Whats with the terminator participating in it?? Is it based on him promoting a healthy lifestyle or what??

I'll watch the Olympics,but I don't think its as big as event as it used to be! Years ago, there was very little sports on TV--hockey only on Sat night for the most part, some sat afternoon sports coverage of other sports. Now 1 can watch it 24 hrs a day!! So some of that excitement of the Olympics sports coverage has died down, at least for me!

CanadaMilk in Bags

You're telling me! I will NOT miss the insane prices here. I used to live in one of the more expensive communities. It killed me paying $21 for 12 cans of pop. :crying: At least it's only $13 where I live now!

Which community were you in? Did you live here or just visit for work? I wonder if we know any of the same people...weird.



I was on a CP 140 Aurora aircraft up doing a northern patrol. Only there for a few days. based out of Greenwood NS

CanadaMilk in Bags

Here in Nunavut we have milk in bags! I had no idea it was becoming archaic and disappearing. I grew up in Ontario with milk in bags and now have them here. I never have any idea what's going on in the rest of Canada.

P.S. 1L of milk here is $8 at the cheapest.



I was in Nunavut with the Air Force back in 2004. Crazy expensive!!

I agree with Flames. Family members of Terry Fox should light the Olympic Torch.
Olympic participants are dedicated to their cause with a give all, fight to the end attitude
which was exactly what Terry Fox believed in and to this day his cause is still being fought.

Olympics isnt just about athletes! Its about sending out a message! And having something related to terry Fox Would be huge!! Who better portrays, courage, persistence than terry fox, a true fighter. Each yr communities across canada have a terry Fox run! His name lives on forever. And what better place for his family to light the torch, other than in the province he would have finished his journey in. Of course now a days all the Olympics means is $$$$$. I'll be at work , so wont get to see it!!
