bluebubbles - You just voiced my exact sentiments, I feel too at home here in the U.S and I feel like such a foreigner in Korea, I hardly speak the language even though I’m a citizen, since I grew up studying at an American international school in Hong Kong, now that my family moved here on an L1 visa, I have made friends here and seem to fit in very well. Sadly I still am an international student in this country. I actually was thinking about law school, and if what you say is true about the shortage of public government lawyers, note it’s PUBLIC GOVERNMENT, I don’t think even Greencard holders are allowed to get a hold of government jobs. I do hope the shortage isn’t just limited to the government sector but also private law, where foreigners at least have a chance, even if it’s minuscule. I’m going to try get a job here, but I’m not going to expect it to come easy, if that’s the case, HK will probably be my back up plan. Anyway, I wish you luck in the future!

futurenyustudent - Did you just say your mom is on her way to getting a Greencard? if that’s the case shouldn’t you be eligible for a Greencard as well? Thus being able to work in the states, without needing a work permit for foreigners. If you are, I don’t see why you should be worried, I’m pretty sure if one of your parents have a Greencard you are eligible for one as well. Unless I’m missing something here.
