That's not "pretty quick". That's 18 months. Pretty quick would be a month.

- refurb 6y agoI’d love to see if any country does it that quickly. It’s a pretty involved process in the US with appointments, medical exams, etc.
- JAlexoid 6y agoYou mean... Like Singapore(7days), Lithuania(15days), Ireland(4 weeks), Netherlands and most other European countries - 90 day mandate. My first work authorization in US was the simplest L1b internal company transfer. That took from mid October 2016 to issue of the visa on 21 Feb 2017. That's considerably longer for the simple document. My blanket work authorization took 2.5 years... and 4 years for the LPR.
- refurb 6y agoAre you talking visa or permanent residency? Those are very different. 7 days for PR in Singapore? That's not the experience I've hear from friends. In fact, you're at the mercy of the gov't as it's entirely discretional for PR. You often have to apply multiple times if you don't have the "right" profile.
- JAlexoid 6y agoJust a work permit. An equivalent of what you get in Singapore in 7 days is H1. H1B takes at absolute best - 6 months at 33% success rate.(If you miraculously get to file on March 31st and get to start October 1st.) Permanent residency in US takes years. Even Diversity Lottery takes at least 18 months.
- refurb 6y agoOh, my original reply was to the parent comment about permanent residency.
