"IF I want to travel to the U.S. I have to have a visa,I have to pay for the visa,"

Well, not everyone was borne to be a winner.

[Lukasz]

First of all, you are a liar and secondary maybe you could advocate a wall somewhere in the New Zealand but in Europe you have nothing to say, understand?

[lizol]

You're definitely right.

This is a great chance for the Poles. If we screw it up - we can blame only ourselves.

But I hope this is not going to happen.

In fact big part of the European job market is opened for the Poles today. With special emphasis on UK.
So - if someone wants to go abroad to work - can do it without problem, and being much closer to home.

You see - it's different to go to UK, when within 2 hours you can be back home, paying relatively small money for travel. If you get a well paid job, it's possible, that you can visit your family even every weekend.

And it's absolutely different with U.S. It's reeeeealy far away.
I remember - when I was there in 1995 (stayed almost 3 months) and was calling my parents and girlfriend (wife now :-) - I could almost hear sound of waves of the ocean :-)))

watch out the Polish will steal everything and then try and sell it back to you (used and painted a differant colour )

In California we call them "Tijuana Taxis."

IIRC, a German minister showed up at work with a nice late-model Mercedes, and one day it was gone.

Not what you're thinking though. He'd just bought an expensive Polish recycle car and it was the Polizei who took it away. He complained at the loss, and they said to suck it up -- that's what you get for buying a stolen car.

Australian government Advise to travelers in Poland .

Street crime such as mugging, CAR JACKING, and theft occurs in Polish CITIES. Criminal gangs often target vehicles with foreign No. plates by posing as police officers etc., etc., www.smartraveller.com /advice Poland /crime
And the web sites of nearly all European countries are the same

I am a New Zealander working in Germany, IF I want to travel to the U.S. I have to have a visa,I have to pay for the visa

Yeah, you're as much a New Zealander, as I am an Eskimo, you petty liar.

You're a lazy liar too, as you could have done some search before you posted this BS.

[lizol]

What a happy country that Australia must be, if they don't have "Street crime such as mugging" there.

I can see by your ignorance that you must have run away from Poland, Police trouble?
New Zealanders like all the other countries on your list are only eligible if they have machine readable passports( electronic ) and even with that you have to pay $6.00
I have not an MRP as it does not work in countries like Poland

[investigateworld]

A number of years ago a number of Polish Gypsies came in a they were a crime wave unlike any other group.

Some of their victims were personal friends of either Boxer or Finestien so the Visa program held it against all Poles.

[lizol]

I can see by your ignorance that you must have run away from Poland,

I can only see, that you probably spend to much time with people from certain groups in Germany

Maybe you can find yourself somewhere on this picture

[lizol]

But he's not a German, hes a New Zealander

Sorry, but I do not buy your fiction. It takes a history of several thousand tourists visa violations to be taken off the list, and a few gypsies couldn't accomplish that. That said, I am happy for the Poles, but their history is dismal, and I fully expect they will be taken off the list in two years.

[twinself]

Time will show. I don't. Not with Ireland and Great Britain welcoming my compatriots with open hands.

[investigateworld]

Believe what you what, but that's what I was told when I tried to help some Poles get visas, by an INS Supervisor when I axed for some professional courtesy.

[GarySpFc]

Somebody at the INS did not know the correct answer, and so the answer they gave you was a rumor or urban myth. I have spent several years studying the immigration issue, and I know the how the visa waiver program works.
