Hi,
My cousin sister and her family got a green card and went to USA about 5 years ago. They are asking me also to try to come there. They say I can live with them and for my personal expenses I can do part time jobs itseems. But because I'm a cousin they say they can't sponsor and take me there. So I have to find a way to go there. Can someone give me advice on this matter and help me to go to USA please?

thanks in advance

don03,
Don't you like to visit countries and experience life firsthand? I really like to go to a USA and live at least a year or two. See how life is there. Yeah, I've heard the grass is not as green on the other side as it looks from this side. But life is short. I like see how it is there myself, thank you. :-)

If your brother or sister there with the citizenship then they can sponsor u and take to the USA permanently,otherwise no option than win green card!,which way u planning to go there(what type of a visa?):)
That's the things I want to know. Got any idea about any service or agency in Sri Lanka that can advice me about how I can go about tackling this matter?

    I don't have idea about agency could help u,anyway most of the guys go there as a student,I'm not sure could stay there with the visitors visa(more than 6 months or something),u may try work visa too but won't be easy with the sri lankan embassy buggers!
