Hey guys, we are thinking of moving to Kiev as I have been offered a position at a school there, but there are a few things that I'm worried about. I have heard terrible things that Ukranians are racist, especially towards Asian people. This concerns me, as even though both me and my boyfriend are American, he is of Chinese decent, and if we're going to be living there, I don't want to be fearful of how we will be treated. Also, I hear corruption is a problem. Will this affect us? Has anyone had any experience of this?

I'm a Canadian, and have been working in the UAE, on Mission Visas for the past 6 months. I've recently been asked by my company (our UAE Division) to look into getting a Residency Visa for the UAE, so that we can cut down on the Travel, and the red tape associated with servicing our customers in the entire Middle east. My question is how will a UAE Residence Visa affect my Canadian Citizen Status ? Will I have to sell off my Canadian assets to do this? Can anyone point me in the right direction, on how to acquire this information ? The CRA website is very limited, and vague, at best !

Hi everyone

I am planning to move to South Korea to teach English this year but since hearing everything in the media about North Korea's threats I have been rethinking my decision.

I'd appreciate any advice.

Thanks!

Hi, I am currently in a life partner with a SA citizen which means I get to reside in the country on a Life Partner visa. If I want to end this, how does it work? And if I want to work in Cape Town, do I have to leave the country first then come back as a tourist and apply for a work permit or is there a possibility of sorting out my work permit beforehand? I am also aware that it is possible to obtain a work permit more easily based on the Life Partner visa, which is something I do NOT want (as this would automatically be invalid when the relationship ends).

Hi, I will be shifting with my husband and daughter(6 yrs) to Adelaide by June 2013. I have certain queries: 1. I want to find out about the best location with good school, reasonable rent and an area which is child-friendly and has ease of travel, initially we might not have private transport. 2.My husband is a project manager in an IT FIRM. Would like to also know if the job scenario for such requirement is there? Is it better to get a job in hand and then land in Adelaide or better to come and search for the same?
