    Thank you for this video, Marina! :) I am also an immigrant, from Germany :) I loved that you also shared some of the difficult parts of your immigration journey. I myself encountered much more challenges than I expected. Unfortunately, I did have expectations 😄which made it all more difficult to accept. However, I am deeply grateful life gave me this opportunity and pushed me into this direction. I am looking forward to my next years, in the US. To anyone who is currently struggling in the US or in the middle of the transition process: Sending you strength and love 💗

      Because no one in their right mind would move to this place where low IQ neanderthals commit mass shootings every week, cops shoot up innocent people, workers' rights are antediluvian compared to European countries, healthcare sucks, etc. Etc.
      I can get it if OP is making 200k a year in a nice job with decent healthcare coverage and some PTO.

Thanks for abiding by the country's immigration rules. Best wishes for success. I subscribed and expect big things from you and your husband.

    I am so excited to watch this video and see how much you struggled to start your start up and go back to the United States. It reminds me of my story because I have struggled for almost 2 years and half to get the visa of America after it has been denied for the first time and the second time I got accepted for only 5 months and when I came back home to Egypt I applied for the third time and I finally got it, and thankfully after I graduated from pharmacy school in my country I went back to the United States, and I have been here for a year and half. I can tell that I am still struggling for my equivalence to be a registered pharmacist here, also for work. The greatest thing to me now that I have seen a the same story of mine and now we all look up to you since you are an influencer and entrepreneur, hopefully I achieve my goals, too.
    Thanks for creating that hope! 🙏

    I came to US at age 25 as well back in 2000. When you have greencard you only can stay abroad for 6 months otherwise your greencard will be revoked, for US citizens you can stay as long as you want abroad, just pay the visa destination yearly and its cheap, like $100 buck a year. We have same appetite drive Porsche Macan Turbo and Tesla Model X :)

    Dear Marina, please let us know in some of your next videos, why IS SO IMPORTANT TO LIVE IN SILICON VALLEY for you, where is everything so expensive?
    I understand that if you have a start-up, it could help. Now you have 3 youtube channels and it doesn´t matter, where you live or film them.
    Your company linguamarina offers language stays in abroad and a lot of your employees live in Russia or Ukrajina.
    You have a lot of on-line meetings. Why is necessary to live directly in Silicon Valley now?
    Because of people? But do your neighbors really want to share their lives and ideas with each other? I
    s it so important for running your business to live there? Please let us know. Thanks and thanks for all your videos too.

      @GretaSzilvasi Рік тому

      @@gracyhalam hi Gracy!:) it is a super broad topic but when you adjust your status from F-1 to a permanent residency status; you need to file for green card (i-485) for USCIS. It is a lot of paperwork; several forms that support the case (i would suggest looking up videos and lawyers on youtube about this in extra. That helped me a lot + the USCIS website articles about what and how to file; they list everything you need to know. It’s been a year for me right now and still waiting, so it’ll be a very long application process. U’ll need i-485 & i-130 + i-131 as well as i-765 and i-864 (affidavit of support) + i-693 so i’d just start googling and doing the research just because even tho these are required (and you have to pay for the application as well as the medical exam from out of pocket) - every case is different and u might need additional forms as well regarding your own situation:) you can reach out to me on insta @gretaszilvasi and there I can help you with some basic questions if u feel like it.:) hope this helps tho

    Interesting video and you need MONEY to kickstart your emigration to the US. Unfortunately, I am not interested in the US as a destination. I stayed in Hyderabad and built my own business in Tech and Health. The USA is for greed mongers and people who have the money but do not know to spend it even if I bought a Tesla which I would not. Frugality with a Purpose. The seduction of Silicon Valley is a past tense. One can work without location specific. My high tech office is connected to my worldwide Offices and HQ is in Mauritius. My Family and friends are my most important people and do no need a lonely apartment costing USD4000 a month. I own my own Home and a Holiday home. The MORAL is do not look at the US as a seduction for Wealth. You can make it in your home Country. The myth of start of finance bubble is now broken.
