National Visa Center (Dept of State)	National Visa Center!	Here's an add in the local paper from a staffing type agency hiring people to process visas at the NVC in Portsmouth, NH: Visa Processing Specialist/Data Entry Employer: Availability Inc. Location: Portsmouth, NH 03801 Date: 06-14-2006 Job Type: Full TimeYou will process U.S. Department of State immigrant visa petitions. Position requires a combination of data entry and analytical skills to create automated immigrant visa petitions while meeting quotas and strict quality standards. Primarily seeking Second Shift (4-12:30) candidates with some First Shift openings. These positions are initially temporary. However, after five months of employment you are eligible to become a permanent employee and receive medical benefits. Over 95% of our VPS temps are offered and accept permanent positions! Second Shift pays $17.04 per hour - ($14.17/hr plus $2.87/hr in lieu of medical benefits). When available, the First Shift pays $15.75 per hour - ($12.88/hr plus $2.87/hr in lieu of medical benefits). Requirements: ? Must pass typing and data entry testing ?

Anyway, if you want to make a difference, here's a weird chance to do it - you can process other people's applications in an efficient, timely, knowledgeable manner - and maybe even be nice! if i didnt love nursing so much i would do it hahahahahhaha	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-26 09:57:00

US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	Denial of immigration visa	i am sorry to hear that..i am sure that has happened to people .....i hope the congresswoman can help you...i dont understand what made them think it was for immigration... sometimes i think it is just easier to marry them after they come to the US The embassy had all the proof we had provied to immgration here in my home city of spokane wedding phones calling cards, about 150 emails. card he had sent me, copies of western union recipt where I sent him money. copies of my two differnt plane tickets I paid for. They interview him under outh and then interviewed me and then interview us in a differnt room and played a game they called the immigration game asking us question about what side of the bed we sleep on the color of the bedding the color of our tooth breshes. my husband was never given any paper saying he was denied and now they are telling me the case is pending and they have interviewed our family in tunis. I dont belive a word you are saying! Yeah sounds kinda fishy to me. If you were denied they tell you and give you a blue peice of paper and they will send the case back to the USA. they dont alway interview seperated but if they are doubting it they will. I dont belive they denied then have a change of heart and feel guilty and say ok we sorry we interview the family.. it does not happen like that That's what i thought... I thought something was up cos for them to deny a person is for a reason... especially being married and bringing your spouse... something isnt right here	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-04 13:44:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	snail mail corespondence	dont worry about it.. just print out emails	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-24 22:59:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	Financial Aid	Yes it is income... i also receive financial aid but i also work full time so i didnt even count it.. but u can cos that is how he lives while he goes to school. Financial aid from school is supposed to be used for tuition, books, supplies.. there are certain things you can't use the money for.. I've heard that it cant be used, but I dont remember the source. Maybe someone else has some info. I hope it all pans out.. jamie you are right about that part but certian grants and such are to be help with living costs.. i am receiving one for this semester.	samir_shannon	Female	Algeria	2006-07-24 22:58:00
