Well..Hello there. I had just registered and this is my first post. My apologies if this has been asked.
See, I'm a Canadian citizen. I am not native, I have no American family. I want to move to the US so my girlfriend and I can live together. We have plans on marriage at some point in our lives but like many people, we'd like to live together first. Being in two different countries makes it a slight challenge. I'd also love to enlist in the US Army and build a career there.
First things first however, what are my options to stay in the US and work there? Not even permanent residency but for perhaps six months and just work retail, if that's even possible? I don't have a university degree in any special field to be sponsored as an engineer. The best I have is assistant manager experience.
Anyways, to stop rambling, a brief overview:
I want to stay in the US for an extended period to live with my girlfriend, and perhaps gain some form of employment. I'd eventually like to apply for residency or citizenship. I do not have a university degree. I am Canadian born.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Right now I feel as though I have no options except to marry my girlfriend right now for us to live together or us have a child together. So I'm hoping for some good news.
