- pjc50 6mo agoI think we need to acknowledge that all but the most transitory fruit pickers may want to settle permanently after working in a country for many years, and should not unreasonably be prevented from doing so.
- bigfishrunning 6mo agoIf i were working in a country for many years, I would make some effort to learn to communicate with the other people who live in that country, before becoming a permanent resident. I understand this is very difficult; I've been studying Spanish every day for almost 2 years and I am nowhere near fluent. However, I suspect I would be further along if I lived somewhere where people commonly spoke Spanish.
- ecshafer 6mo agoWhat is unreasonable prevention?
- raw_anon_1111 6mo agoThere is nothing unreasonable about if you want to live in a country you should learn the language. I said in another comment that I’m learning Spanish now because I plan to move to a Spanish speaking country for retirement.
- estebank 6mo agoWithout knowing the numbers, I'd wager that the majority of work Visas worldwide are "dual-intent", to use the USCIS parlance. Restrictions might be higher or lower in different countries, but there's generaly a path dor moving from a work visa to permanent residency.
- kmeisthax 6mo ago> I expect to be in that country to work, not as a permanent resident. Aren't work visas basically the only realistic path to permanent residency for most people?
