No, you need much more. Official visa information here: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/immigrants_1340.html

you need a visa something that friends will NOT be able to provide for you. suggest you find another dream as this one is not going to happen any time soon [if at all]

My dream is to live in Nigeria. Why don't you help me find job in your country?

Pick a visa There are basically NINE ways that you can get a visa to live and work in the US: (1) Marriage (or engagement in anticipation of marriage) to a US citizen. (2) You have skills that are in short supply in the US e.g. scientific or medical training. A degree is normally a must. Or you have superior specialist skills with at least 12 years experience. (H visas) (3) You have an Employer who is willing to transfer you - but even the employer has to make a good case for you - so you have to be a manager unless you fall under category (2) above.(L visas) (4) You may get a Green card in the diversity lottery (UK citizens, except N.Ireland, are not generally eligible unless you, your spouse or parents were born abroad or held a different citizenship. (5)You own or buy business (does not get you permanent resident status i.e. no green card)You must be a national of a qualifying Treaty countries. The business must have a minimum value of around $150k (more the better) bearing in mind you will need somewhere to live and with any startup business you will need at least 2 years living money as back up. So a figure of $350k would be a nearer minimum (E-2 visas) (6)You are an "investor" i.e. you have at least US $1m in assets to bring with you. half of that in a few areas. And your background will be investigated to the hilt. (EB-5 visas) (7)You have a close relative (mother, father, brother, sister and no further) who is an US citizen who would sponsor you, approx time this take 2-12 years? (8.The R1 visa is available to foreign members of religious denominations, having bona fide non-profit religious organizations in the U.S., for entering the U.S. to carry on the activities of a minister or religious worker as a profession, occupation or vocation (9)THE UNUSUAL You are in a position to claim refugee status/political asylum. or You get a member of Congress to sponsor a private bill with legislation that applies just to you. The S visa issued to persons who assist US law enforcement to investigate and prosecute crimes and terrorist activities such as money laundering and organized crime Recruitment agent will not take you seriously if you are not already in the US. Writing for jobs is really a waste of time; likewise US employers have no idea what foreign qualification are or mean (except Degrees) it may pay you to get your qualification translated into a US equivalent, there are Companies that do this (www.wes.org) .. But if you are getting a visa under (2) above then you need a job offer before you can get the visa. Your Employer will be your sponsor this will cost them upward of $5k. So you can see you have to be offering something really special to get considered They may also have to prove to the Dept of labor that there is no American who can do the job if the position is to be permanent © follow the flow chart http://immigrationroad.com/green-card/immigration-flowchart-roadmap-to-green-card.pdf
5 :
unfortunately the USA is completely racist against African nations and makes it nearly impossible to get a visa
6 :
No,you need immediate family member who are US citizens to petition for you. Friends can do nothing for you.

I live in New Jersey but work in New York, what state taxes are they taking out of my paycheck

I live in New Jersey but work in New York, what state taxes are they taking out of my paycheck?

United States - 8 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
Normally you get taxed based on where you live, since those are the school districts, etc. that you're supporting.
2 :
i believe they take them out of the state where you work
3 :
the state in which the money is earned (new york) is the state in which you will pay the applicable income tax.
4 :
You pay where you live. However if you are working in NYC (or many big cities such as Philly) you have to pay a wage tax as well. bummer
5 :
Usually you get taxes taken out based on the home address that you put on the check.
6 :
Many states have reciprocal taxing agreements and I believe that NY and NJ do as well. Look at your pay stub, it should tell you on there. Under the deductions, it will say something like State and will have a notation if it is for NJ.
7 :
Taxes are usually taken out by the state in which you work. This would be New York. Your pay check stub will say which state is taking them out. There may be a state code, if not an abbreviation, and you can look this code up by going on line. Go on line to State of NY dept of Revenue and also State of NJ dept of Revenue. There is also live tax help there... hope this helps you out.
8 :
They are most likely taking out state taxes for NY. You will pay taxes both where you live and where you work. You will get a credit on your taxes in NJ for the taxes paid to NY, however it will probably not completely offset each other so they may be taking taxes out for both. There is no reciprocal agreement between NJ and NY. There is one between NJ and PA.

If you want to be an actress in Hollywood, I don't see why you'd want to move to New York.

And the cost of living in New York is incredibly high, so as faras how much it costs to live there, the answer is a lot.

What is it like to work For New York Life Insurance

What is it like to work For New York Life Insurance? ?
Well I have an interview for New york life in Vienna Va, and I was wondering what are the advantages and disadvatages and whats the salary like? Also Im 18 does that make a difference? What are the chances I will get hired.
Insurance - 3 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
If you're interviewing for an agent position, it's highly unlikely you'll get the job. Any of the big name companies normally require either a college degree in a business or financial specialty, or significant outside sales experience. Other than a possible small training stipend, there's no salary at all - pure commission. By the end of your third year, one of two things will probably happen: You'll have already quit because you couldn't make even a meager living, or you'll be clearing six figures. If you're smart, you'll then go independent where you can make real money.
2 :
Life insurance is actually very flexible. Since I'm from Oklahoma I'm not sure about New York laws and regulations, so I recommend you contact a nearby insurance agent. http://www.goodinternetdeals.com/Life-Insurance.html They will be able to help you.
3 :
You're pretty much guaranteed to get hired - the main qualification is, that you're breathing. But at 18, you're not particularly likely to succeed. See, this is a straight commission sales job . . . and being so young, you'll have an inherent credibility issue ALSO to overcome, when trying to sell insurance. Bottom line - if you can't sell, you won't make it. Washout rate is about 95%. If they aren't offering salary - and dollars to donuts, they aren't, it's straight commission - pass on this. You're MUCH more likely to succeed, in 10 years, than you are today.

If you are no longer receiving a paycheck from your company than there is nothing to deduct from. It depends if you are still employed by the company then they will either bill you for your portion of the premium or sometimes they will let you pay double payments when you return to work. If you are no longer employed by them then you should receive paperwork for COBRA so you can continue to pay your insurance on your own.

For example, Hilton and Marriott hire international staff as interns. Australians and New Zealanders also qualify for: http://newzealand.usembassy.gov/swt_faq.html Australian citizens can visit the USA for up to 90 days as a tourist, so you could travel for interviews & tests if necessary: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/ http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/without/without_1990.html http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/id_visa/business_pleasure/vwp/i94_samples.xml Search "international exchange programs USA" and there should be many links to programs that offer temporary and seasonal work in the US. Examples are: www.ccusa.com http://www.bunac.org/australia/ Do carefully check any programs you might be interested in as not all of them are a good deal. Another option is to go to school in the USA. Australian citizens can more easily get a US student visa and you MAY be able to work on-campus. Having a USA university diploma or certificate will make applying for jobs easier, and going to school in the US will help you decide if you really want to work here: www.collegesintheusa.com If you decide to go to university in the USA the first step is to identify several schools you might want to attend and make contact with their offices of international students For example: http://global.tulane.edu/oiss/ www.oiss.uno.edu Good luck!

How well does a GPS work in New York City (Manhattan)?

1 :
REALLY WELL IN BIG CITIES
2 :
It would probably work good enough in Manhattan, but just in case, don't rely entirely on it. I'd suggest planning out your route in advance and get a printout of it, and just program your GPS as a backup, or to estimate how much farther you have left to go.
3 :
You should never depend on one. You should have an idea where you're going first, and then use the GPS only as a backup. And yes the tall buildings, especially in Midtown, can block your unit from the satellite at times.
4 :
I have limited experience with GPS in Manhattan, but here are my observations. The signal is pretty reliable. Maybe on some tight streets surrounded by tall buildings you will have problems. What is more important to me is the fact that the program I have is not fully aware of all traffic rules. It told me to make a couple of turns that were not permitted. Be careful!
5 :
It works really good i don't know who told you that, but they lied. The only problem is if you're not familiar with the area when the thing tells you to turn you could easily miss it because one street is literally one block. But its not very easy to get lost in Manhattan (mostly in the midtown area). Well now reading the other answers i guess it depends on the GPS you have, i have a tomtom and its never backed out on me it always works when i go in the city,(i live in staten island) and i update its routes when i connect it to the computer with the software that it came with.

In a vehicle or handheld walking? I would not trust it in a vehicle. It's an accident or misadventure waiting to happen. http://www.gamescheat.ca/2010/01/garmin-nuvi-760-gps-got-me-lost-in-new-york-state-part-1/ (GPS got me lost) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNm_iqVk-qs (The lost GPS)

You stop being a Texas resident as soon as you move out of the state. If you maintain a home there, you may be considered a resident for some purposes, but it depends on the exact purpose whether you would be considered a Texas resident. For University of Texas' in-state tuition, you must live in Texas for 12 consecutive months and maintain a domicile in Texas. Temporary absence even for an employment assignment will not remove your residency, but it has to actually be temporary.

People working illegally is very much frowned upon in the United States and you will not be very welcome - just take a look at the immigration section for proof of this. Personally, if you cannot keep to the agreements and conditions of your visa then for me you can stay home, people like you give the rest of us non-immigrants who go about things the legit way a real bad name and if you do chose to do this then I hope you get reported, detained and deported - and I hope the immigration officer gives you a nice little smile when they stamp your passport with a nice ineligible stamp upon your departure. Edit: To whoever gave me a thumbs down, I take it that you support people who work illegally in this country and also the employers who employ them? Obviously you have no idea about the detrimental effects that illegal workers cause in this country. It as negative effects on the economy, increases the unemployment rates in United States and not to mention the effect that this as on the U.S. citizens, permanent residents and their families. It is not only the people who suffer but the society as a whole. But hey, as long as they are not taking your job, that's okay as you don't care right?

I'm not going to get political here; just providing an answer...... It isn't easy but you CAN find work "off the books" (as we call it)...in some smaller restaurants. Talk to a manager, and "tread lightly" on the "off the books" thing. You may be able to get something.
3 :
I don't want to get political here either except to say that working OTB is not exclusively limited to illegal aliens alone.There are more than a few native New Yorkers who have such a job somewhere on their resumes. Corpoarate won't touch you so don't even bother to ask them What you are looking for are small "Mom &Pop "type businesses that deal with a lot of cash. What you don't want do is work for a company where you stand a reasonable chance of being injured bc your medical bills will basically be your own and "Mom & Pop "will deny that they ever knew that you were illegal. Be careful

Written Exam, Physical, Background Check, Psychological - Six Months at the academy, six months in field training, total of two years probation. Do yourself a favor, take the FD (Fire Department FDNY - you will never see a fireman become a cop, only NYPD guys become firemen, there is a reason for this - just some good information from a retired NYPD cop) test.

If you call the state you live in, they can direct you. The employer has to pay for unemployment, so it might be the state you work in. You'll have to make the phone call. And be aware, do it soon... it takes up to 2 months to receive your first check (in florida, anyway).

You go into your local unemployment office (which in your case is in NY,) and they do an out of state (e.g., NJ) application for you.

To get a visa to work, you need to have an employer who will sponsor you and get you a temporary work visa such as H1B (if not already filled up). To get a visa, 1. Try sending your resume to US companies and explain to them that you will be there on this month and available for interview. It will be a long shot as majority of employers want US based workers and US citizens to work for them. You have to stress what it is that you can do that the employer may not be able to find among US applicants 2. Go with your girlfriend to the US as a tourist and while here apply for jobs. Employers are more likely to entertain you because you are already in the country (as against if you are still in UK and they still have to consider how to bring you in the US just for the interview). As long as your girlfriend is willing to support you, this approach will not be a problem

1 :
Yes, you will have to file a NJ return and pay taxes to NJ. However, you will get a credit for any taxes paid to NY. SInce NY taxes are higher than NJ, you will probably not owe anything (except if you have other NJ income such as dividends, interest, etc.)
2 :
Just make sure to take quarters for the bridge...ugh. Geez, that alone will cost you enough every week...
3 :
Yes, but another poster has it backwards. You'll receive a credit on your NY return for the NJ taxes paid, up to what the NY taxes would have been. File a non-resident NJ return listing only the NJ income and pay any tax due. Then file your regular resident NY return listing all income from all sources. You'll take a credit for the NJ taxes paid on your NY return. Effectively you'll pay the higher of the two states taxes for the NJ income.

It's possible but if you are a jerk it won't. A PBA card is just a courtesy not a get out of jail free card.

I doubt it. Besides, the officer will just take it away if you caused a moving violation. For parking, you may slide unless you were in a handicap spot. Why don't you ask in "Home > Politics & Government > Law Enforcement & Police" since this is travel. http://answers.yahoo.com/dir/;_ylt=AtRF0nVDKN_MeTWAAKeKZOrQ7BR.;_ylv=3?link=list&sid=396546501
3 :
It depends on a few things: 1) what you might be stopped for, 2) whether or not the Officer stopping you is inclined to extend inter-agency courtesy, and 3) your demeanor at the time of the stop. However, PBA cards are not "community property", if the card was given to your father, he can't give it to you, it doesn't work like that. The odds are, that you probably will get a ticket and might even have the card confiscated or just completely ignored.

I work for New York State, what could the impending government freeze mean for me

I work for New York State, what could the impending government freeze mean for me?
I am a computer programmer working in the welfare division, so my job is pretty safe as far as long term security. However, there have been talks about government freezes (ie: only the most essential government facilities stay open until the budget is resolved). What does that mean? Am I unemployed? What does the union do? Very confused as to what it would all mean to me! Thanks in advance. This is not in regards to the federal wage freeze. This is regarding the NYS Budget problem.
Government - 3 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
the government freeze refers to federal employees, not sure it would include the State of New York's employees like yourself.
2 :
I'm assuming you're talking about a state freeze, not a Federal one. My guess is that if they do actually "shut down" all but the most essential facilities, you will not be paid during that time. As a computer programmer, you might have some work, if you were called in to repair a critical system. However, welfare is likely not considered essential. You won't be unemployed. Rather, you'll be on a furlough, which means that you will still be employed, but will not be allowed to work or be paid to work. It's a tough position, since you can't collect unemployment (which may be unavailable, anyway). You'd have to quit and get another job. Furloughs typically don't last more than a few weeks, which is why most people suck it up and deal. However, if they go on longer, you may be forced to look for work elsewhere. As far as unions, they are typically against this sort of thing. However, there is little they can do if the government digs in its heels and says that they are doing a shutdown. For now, stay put.
3 :
Your union, and all modern labor unions, are corrupt and inefficient at helping a business entity to maintain profitability. Your future wages will be dependent upon the "welfare" of the contributing citizens of New York, after taking into account their overwhelming collective tax burden, resolving the budget crisis will only be an increasingly difficult issue, ending inevitably in bailout from the Fed.

I have noticed a lot of people who live and work in New York State but have out of state license plates. Why?
I hear they do this to lower their insurance rates. Many of my acquaintances have florida license plates, but they live and work here. They just have a summer home down there. Is this legal? If not, how can one report these license plates? I also have a friend who has an Arizona license plate. He lives and works here, but has family in Az, and uses that as an excuse, but I dont see it fair that he can evade all our road taxes.

Florida has some funny laws about registration and plates, and if they own real estate there they may have to register the cars there, even if it's only a summer/winter home. Maybe a Florida resident can expand on this.
