從美國2004年起,我在加州以F1 Visa居留
今年為2009,也就是第六年。期間一直為 Continuing Student
今年學期開始,在學校網站上看到
Petition for Classification of Resident Status.
聽有經驗的人說,只要我在加州住超過第五年,那麼我就機會file CA residency.
在此提供一下我的個人資料:
1.沒有SSN
2.漂泊的留學生,家人都在台灣。
3.Currently Undergraduate, applying Master degree & job hunting
(轉了三次專業,真是不好意思阿,真是坎坷,終於要畢業了 :S)
4.六年都在CA,期間只有暑假回台灣,而且沒有停過學。
我們學校的 International officer & counselor 說實話有點 lame
1. 我今年4/9 email 去問 counselor,他展鐵釘釘的跟我說
"If you are an international student under an F1 visa you do not
quality for the petition for reclassification." ' 當時我學校很忙,
我也想說算了作罷。
後來我上網看到有經驗的人跟我說我是resident. 我當下很疑惑,所以馬上去
學校的 international office.
2. 就兩個禮拜前,我找到學校 international officer, 也就是總負責人
問她我qualify CA residency 否? 她竟然跟我說 "That's only for phD students.
Only phD students who live in California for more than 5 years are
qualified." 我問她"What about undergrads and masters?" 她竟然跟我說
"They are not able to get residency."
"But I heard from an experienced Taiwanese that I'm qualified as CA
resident already."
"hm...shouldn't be, but I'm not sure."
我已經快暈了。。什麼叫not sure? 不然我們找international officer 問幹嘛?
她是人很好很nice, 但感覺辦事有點 lame, 說話不清不楚的,可能是新手不熟吧?
這種情況已經好幾次了! :S 真是不知該說什麼。我只能說我學到教訓就是事情要
自己弄清楚,別人都不可靠! 有的人講得資訊和話還是不負責任的!最後出皮肉還
不是我自己要負責。
我只好上網來問,希望有經驗的好心人士幫我解答! 謝謝 :D
我已經把整個reclassification file都詳細讀過一遍了,發覺我還是符合candidate
資格,可以去申請看看。請問還有什麼要注意的嗎? 唉,是不是因為這樣一耽誤,已
經錯過deadline了? 我現在要趁暑假趕快弄個SSN嗎? 這對我很重要,因為學費可能可
以減免很多,萬一找到工作稅收也不一樣。
還是台灣同胞最溫暖了 ^.^ 感謝幫忙
