    Is this correct they need a payment first before they give you the application form. Because I got an email from cultural care USA.

      no, I payed as soon as I found my host fam and matched with them. I would call CC and ask them :)

      How can we know that the agency is legit?

    • @sxrar
      @sxrar  2 роки тому +1

      to be honest I found mine through a lot of research, also I knew they are legit because I was at events where companies represented themselves (different jobs). Only legit companies were able to present their brand.
