That’s where he went wrong. He tried to enter the US from Canada. The correct way to do it is to start from Mexico and walk across the border without telling anyone.
It's actually 100% true. In 2015 i worked as an assistant manager for Ukrainian based Dota 2 esports team Natus Vincere. We applied for US visas because we qualified for The International 2015 tournament and were denied 2 times for no apparent reason. Only on the 3rd time with a direct involvement of Erik Johnson from Valve and US Senator Maria Cantwell we were able to secure visas for players only, who participate in the event and leave the country afterwards. Those events were in the news and you can google it. I'm personally were denied visa's 3 times, despite not having any intentions to stay in US at that time. In 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine, i'm as a holder of Russian citizenship were residing in Ukraine and already was a strong opponent of the putin regime, so the decision were made to emigrate into the USA because in Russia the only thing that awaits me and my girlfriend were prison and death. We bought tickets to Mexico and travel to Tijuana, where we stayed for 6 weeks arranging things and successfully illegally crossed the border with a group of Latino migrants and were immediately detained after crossing by border guards. After that we claim for political asylum during the interview and were processed and let go free to connect with our “host” who we arranged prior before crossing, when we were still in Mexico. I'm not proud of what i did by illegally crossing US border, but i don't understand why is this so hard (almost impossible) to get a US visa and travel to US even when you have perfectly clean travel history, solid bank account and no problems with laws whatsoever, but so easy to cross border illegally and just claim asylum to let go free inside US.

Consider that illegals can get in undocumented and bussed and housed and fed but you have to jump through hoops just to go abroad, even fly internally in the US sometimes. Consider in Europe (EU) that illegals can get in undocumented and bussed and housed and fed but I as a lawful Brit will need to be fingerprinted and have biometric security so I can be surveilled 24/7 just to go on holiday for a week. Consider that the current US Gov considers Patriots enemies of America while leaving the borders wide open. Consider they are robbing hundreds of billions from the taxpayer to fight war to protect the border of a non allied nation thousands of miles away which they profit from. Consider that our Governments may be treasonous and working for special interests and not the peoples.
I spent the only 3 days in jail I have in my entire life because of government incompetence. I attended a court date for an open container charge, paid my fine and moved along. But like 4 years later, I was arrested on a warrant for never attending that court date. It took 3 days before I could get bailed out. Apparently the judge never wrote on the back of the ticket when I was at court, so it looked as though I just never attended court!! Government incompetence is as American as apple pie!!
at some point he says something like "the government doesn't fix problems quickly, because if they did they couldn't justify being so bloated with staff and procedures". Seems that way to me, as well.
I find it amazing that government employees in the U.S are a mirror image of the government employees in the U.K. I worked for the government here for 11 years. Story checks out! What happens is the few people who are capable and willing to do the work have to carry the other 20 people in the department by slogging their guts out day after day for crappy pay, whilst the people not working gewt the same crappy pay for not doing anything, so it's worth it to them.
"Joyless husk zombie" Is how I would describe nearly every federal employee Ive ever worked with and Ive been in the military/dod contractor for almost 12 years. They do the absolute minimum amount possible to stay compliant with what ever 100 policies dictate their every move. Getting one of them to do something theyve never done or dont have a sop for is like banging your head against a wall
This is the flip side that a lot of people DON'T see. There are plenty of people that Do want to help, but are incapable of doing so, simply because of 'procedure' that quite effectively ties their hands. A lot of the time, it really is a Gatekeeper like the Implacable Deborah, who has been there for 18 years, everything has to go through, are too important to fire, and not important enough to really care about. Everything goes to them, and that's where the buck stops.
I’m a contractor and can’t get a government leech to do their job, but they’re demanding I do mine while their lack of work is hindering what they want me to do…
Reminds me of the incompetence of the state government when it comes to people who ACTUALLY need disability. I've had severe health issues since I was 12 years old. I then went into a form of remission for my illness when I was 17-20 and was able to work and start college. Then after a bad case of pneumonia, it kickstarted my illness again. This time around I haven't been able to find anything to get it under control. Medications aren't working, salt and water intake isn't making enough of a difference, I've been to the Mayo clinic, have been seeing the best doctor in the country for this disorder, etc. This is ALL documented. Yet I've been denied by disability twice now. Their reasoning? "It's not severe enough". This is all decided by a single worker who has no medical insight. Now it goes to court where it'll likely be denied again. Meanwhile I've heard from my dad who works in probation that he has clients who could CLEARLY work, who get disability. My doctor is also shocked that I'm denied when he personally knows patients who have been accepted when they could still be working as well. It's beyond upsetting. Like, I would LOVE to be able to work and not be bed-bound most of the day at 27 years old.
I'm on the same page , I've had issues since I was twelve and filing for disability does relatively nothing, no matter how many doctors you have vouch no matter how many court hearings or phone calls, nothing works . Meanwhile Several members of my family with little to no health problems get disability no problem while I've had two seizures just typing this and no one will hire bc of it can't get disability. Seemingly anyone who works in any part of the government is so incompetent it's sad
@@MollyHJohns Yeah probably. My lawyer said it literally comes down to if the worker felt like actually reading through your case file and if they're in a good mood. It's awful.
this is why charity needs to be done through church and community groups. let people pay 10-20% less tax and im sure theyd be more than happy to help you. it would get done immediately. and you can properly vet people through these groups so abusers dont get resources
Man I wish I could replay RDR1 but unfortunately my PS3 decided to get the yellow light of death years ago. I wish they'd port it to PC. I would be fully willing to buy the game again if they did.
My buddy was in the US for like 20 years trying to get his citizenship and never ended up getting it (he’s a eurpoean citizen). He decided to move to germany because he couldn’t get a job after graduating with a masters degree bc he wasn’t a US citizen. It’s outrageous that people going through the proper channels struggle with this process so much.
it's like the episode of south park where they're talking to the telecom company and the reps are playing with their own nipples while saying there's nothing they can do.
“Can you PLEASE let our E-Sports team come into the country? They’re Australian and none of them have any past histories of wrongdoings whatsoever.” “Australia? Oh, I’m sorry, but our country doesn’t work that way. Do you want me to give you the number to an immigration office to plead your case there-oh *wait,* we’re them, aren’t we..?”
I work as a contractor for the DoD, and I was talking with a coworker who said they were initially denied their clearance because of their mom being a foreign national. Their dad is a high-ranking officer in the Navy with Top Secret clearance who works at the same shipyard as us, so whomever was doing my coworker's background check decided that, even though their dad is literally employed by the DoD with Top Secret clearance, it would be faster to deny them because of their mom being a foreign national.
I can see why. Their dad is high-ranking in the navy with Top Secret clearance. If your coworker's dad wasn't that, I guarantee the father would be denied. If their mother was a US citizen or legal immigrant, maybe then they would have a better chance. But given how their mom is a foreign national, yeah there's a risk posed there. Not every foreign national comes with good intentions. And given the crisis at our Southern border and the policies regarding it from this administration, yeah there's just too much of a risk of planted spies to steal intel. It's very understandable why they were initially denied.
@TheCollapse410 I mean with the amount of weirdos currently in its not so hard to believe and it's not like ppl promote they work for the dod on TH-cam Instagram yea plenty of pics and videos of ppl in uniform doing something embarrassing or wild with afew normal stuff sprinkled in.
Well it's fairly evident that the DHS is literally void of intelligence. They don't do any research, they jump in gung-ho and waste ludicrous amounts of money on absolutely nothing when there are legitimate concerns that they let pass. It's almost as if they're deliberately doing it. You can't be THAT incompetent without there being a malicious aspect to it.
if the team had just crossed the border illegally and pretended to be gang members from a third world country they'd have been given a free plane ticket and two thousand dollar debit card.
This is unbelieveble but there r some chineses travel to Mexico just to cross over and get a US greencard, I too used to not believe in it bc bro Asian and Mexicans doesnt look alike, but I searched up and asked around appearently it is true and say enough on how stupid the US immigration system has become
Local government office here starts taking calls at 9am, has a 30min break at 10am, goes to lunch at 12pm, comes back at 1pm, has a break at 2pm, stops taking calls at 3pm. Try getting them to do their job.
Lol here in germany you have a window of 2 hours between 10 and 12 am. The funny part is even if you are the first one in line you get your meeting at 10:15 earliest. Me and my friend had 2 reservations directly after each other. I walked out of the door. And i can see that no one is entering the door for 10 min! Then my friend is called to have his meeting. They are paid like 60-70k Euro which is like 100 k dollars because us is more expansive. They get better doctors literally cant get fired and get the highest pension of any job after retiering. Most of the time you are living illegal because you have to verify your adress with in 2 weeks of moving in. But you cant get a reservation in like 6 weeks. If you are a foreign you have to go to a special office. They give out reservations on january first. You can get a date in like 1-2 years. My brother made a drivers licence took him 3 years because he couldnt get a reservation at the office.
It took us 3 years to get my wife a greencard after we got married and had to stay apart all that time. she is from Thailand. We both work, no kids, no previous marriages, both higher education, 0 criminal record, extensive history of paying taxes. Literally the easiest most clear cut case. And the proccess only moved after I found somebody who knew somebody who told me a secret way to get in contact with the immigration office. After that it took less than 2 months.
Fun fact: During CONCACAF Champions league, basically the most important competition for North American and caribbean soccer teams, US immigration denied the entry of basically half of the players from Violette FC from Haiti. They played with only 14 players available, so even if they had problems with someone getting wounded during the match, they had almost no options left. I mean, they won against Austin FC, but going to an official continental match with 14 players is barely enough. Everyone nowadays does at least 3 replacements during the match.
There is something extremely strange going on with Australia and the US. People of all walks of life are being denied entry from Australia. This story should blow up because I want to get to the bottom of this. I have heard 2 other examples from giant content creators
I won a trip to disney once when i was 16 with my friends, i'm from Brazil. My friends got accepted in a instant, i was rejected twice. One of the questions was "is your mom your real mom?' and i was like ???? i dont need to say it was traumatazing, they made like 20+ questions to me both times just to give me a non sense no. When my mom tried to ask why they just said that i could try again when i get older n buy the trip on my own. Nowdays im 30, i never forget and tbh i dont want to step in the US any longer cus of that.
I’ve worked at several jobs where my coworkers have messed up SO BAD, that I have to risk my job to fix a situation. Waiving fees I’m not authorized to- emailing customers off the clock to make sure I have information clear, and other things like that- just to fix the mistake. My bosses usually get mad at me for going to extreme measures to fix an issue, but the other people don’t even get assigned extra training. It’s just “try not to let that happen”
Unfortunately with this, because you do this the coworkers end up still being incompetent as they know "ahh yes, alec(?) will fix it, I don't have to worry if I do this right". You create a standard of making sure everything goes fine, and sacrifice yourself to make sure everything goes smoothly, but it enables the incompetent coworkers to still not give a shit, and the bad training structures that are in place. I am not saying you shouldn't do this. You give a shit about what you do and how you do it, and that says a lot about you and your good intentions/work ethic. But the sad truth is, that most likely even if you do say anything about it to your bosses or coworkers, it will go on death's ears and the incompetent will stay comfortably incompetent. This is the curse on people that cares, in an environment where nobody cares or are ignorant. I do hope you at least affirm some limits towards yourself and the people around you. You will end up burning out if you continue going to extremes to make sure everything stays functional. You have to think of your well-being aswell. Please take care
As an immigration lawyer for EB1 and NIW clients, I write appeals and RFE responses provided by officers at USCIS. I cannot explain to you the sheer avalanche of illogic I deal with on the daily. Some of the decisions are downright bizarre. Best of luck if you ever have to deal with this organization.
DUUUDE I work with EB2-NIW clients, some RFE's are abysmal. In one of them its literally says "We deemed the alien's proposed endeavor to not be of US interest. It does not meet with one of the three prongs". WHICH ONE OF THE FUCKING PRONGSSSSSSSS!!! It does not even say which prong, plus the clients PE is on AI advancement, most likely the highest priority in the CET List 2024 from the FUCKING WHITE HOUSE. Literally denied for no reason. We appealed it, tldr, denied get rekt bozo. Sometimes I hate my job.
that's crazy because i live in California and they let anyone just cross the border and stay in the US indefinitely. i mean, unless you commit murder or some shit, you don't have to go home.
When you split up power in a bureaucracy so much that everyone only has the power to either do nothing or choose to intervene by saying "No" you end up with people going mad from boredom who'd rather say "No" than do nothing again. Literally their empty job is less empty when they're causing problems.
As someone who works in local government and frequently deals with state and federal branches, you're mostly right. This is absolutely not personal. The problem is that federal and state governments are going through such a high turnover rate in these years and all of the standards are changing as they revise their policies. So new guys come in, they want to change how the rules work to make their mark, but their employees are also experiencing turnover, so there's no historic knowledge or experience to help steer the madness in between transitions. It's a mixture of bad luck timing and incompetence that's keeping them stuck like this.
In an animated movie The Twelve Tasks of Asterix from 1976 there is a part that is stuck and nice settled in my mind in a place for "how to describe how govenment bureaucracy works". It's just neverending story of "I need to prove I am needed in this place".
That scene is so memetic that it worked itself into german culture. "Getting passport A38" is in our culture a saying for an impossible bureaucratic task.
I was denied a tourist visa to the US because my dad married a Russian. Even though she had been a UK citizen for like 25years. And this was before the war in Ukraine.
Half the case workers for Austrialian-to-US immigration blanket-deny as many people as possible because they don't want anyone coming over. My housemate's inlaw was denied his visa because "I just don't think you'll want to go back to your country," and in the context of the conversation he was saying that Australia really has nothing to want to go back to. The in-law lives on/owns a ranch, and just wanted to come here for 2 weeks to see his newborn nephew. Immigration law dictates that, after being denied, you can't be assigned the same case worker again. They do this because they know how blatantly discriminatory a lot of their employees are and wanted to give people a shot at eventual success. The second case worker just asked them for the story of how the in-laws met, married, etc., thanked them for their story and welcomed them in. Didn't even check any of the documents. There is NO concrete standard being followed by 99% of our immigration case workers. It's utterly ridiculous.
hopefully people see this and understand why their boomer parents hate the government so much. after a lifetime of this, you really start to feel like they don't deserve _any_ of your money.
@@asdfbeau If the money went to actually hiring and properly training then it might make sense but we all know most these government agencies barely see a cent of every dollar that's supposed to be allotted to them. And people wonder why so many think taxation is theft, it might as well be when none of our taxes actually go where they're supposed to.
@anokage7403 nah they don't make enough in taxes etc to support the programs currently just from taxes, they spend far too much and most of it goes to Healthcare and social security both of which are scams to the majority of people.
One time got a letter from the IRS saying I owed them a hefty amount of money. What it ended up being is that they confused me with my Dad since he has the same first and last name as I do, just a different middle name. So of course my tax return didn't match, they were checking his. There was a loooooot of back and forth via snailmail to correct this. Luckily we both had physical proof (pay stubs) for the period of time they said I owed money. After getting the final letter saying I owed them $0 finally (my dad didn't have to deal with anything thankfully), now I have my paystubs have my middle name as well. Soooo yeah, it can get rough dealing with government agencies I relate. Also always have proof of everything I agree with asmon. Always. Also, have the team go to Mexico or Latin America, get in one of those caravan buses, get to Texas, get sent on another bus to NYC, pick the boys up, profit? :p *shot*
Yeah the system needs changing but when politicians have been saying it's an issue since my childhood 30 years ago and nothing is done, the problem lies with congress. They're the only ones who can change the rules and they don't want to because then they couldn't use it for political leverage.
@@MisterMick113 You're right, but it's a double edged sword. If it's super easy for people to get in, people complain there's too many immigrants. If it's too hard, people complain that it's impossible to gain citizenship and use that to justify illegal immigration, which pisses of the aforementioned group, and the cycle continues. We don't need to invest in a border wall, we need to invest in infrastructure and experts to come in a overhaul the government systems. The united states has produced some of the most profitable and largest companies in history, there's no way we don't have the talent to fix this problem, it's just priorities.
There is another option here that people aren't considering. The agent responsible for his case may be denying them because they don't like him as a streamer. This might actually be personal. At this point just go to Mexico and cross illegally, your team will get a gift card for 10k and a free luxury hotel room for a week.
Or what if the team is under some sort of criminal investigation. I've went back and forth between America and the UK all the time no problem. Chances are someone is holding up the process for everyone and if this were the case they wouldn't tell the team why until they brought down actual charges on said individuals. That's alot more likely then a grown Adult in government having some streamer beef lmaoooooooooo
You have to give a reason for the denial and moist has EA execs and a team of lawyers. he's not telling the full story, someone on the team's probably got a conviction or they fcked up the paperwork
What's crazy is he said that they would be allowed in the country outside of the ORG, so as long as they aren't part of Moist E-sports; they would be allowed in the country. So they can enter the country and compete....but not part of Moist E-Sports...which makes literally ZERO sense. It's still the same people.

I get Asmons point about them being lazy, “never attribute malice to something that can be explained with stupidity” BUT that gives a lot of free movement for people with malice if you live by those words.
Its easy to see who is being malicious if you pay attention. The issue is that enough of the people checking are also lazy and not paying attention. Ex: If 50% is lazy or malicious and 50% who are checking are also 50% lazy or malicious, then only 25% of the bad actors get punished and 25% of the good actors gets falsely blamed.
My friend had similar issues with US immigration. Go to attend a convention, that's totally fine. Go to speak at a convention, suddenly you need a visa.
@@daxx1985 his accommodation is sponsored. He is not paid. Sponsored accommodation cost isn't considered a paid gig. That money exchanged hands and was taxed in the country.
We had this issue with finance in the military. We had dozens of people with their pay completely messed up in my unit. There were dozens getting overpaid and being taxed for that pay, while being documented it was overpaid and they'd have to pay it back, and then there were people being underpaid and unable to afford their homes all because someone at our parent unit messed up bigly on the finances. We had people that when I left were on month 6 of not being paid at all. We were a "satellite" unit so our personal finance office couldn't fix it, they could only contact our parent unit's finance office to make them do it. Our parent unit's finance office liked to take 3 hour lunch breaks and ignore phone calls from anyone that's caller ID wasn't programmed into their office phone as the First Sergeant
In the part of the Government that I know about (USPS), at a certain level, the fastest way to get promoted Is to fuck up just enough to be embarrassing to the specific office, but not the org, as a whole. Depending how much of a stink is kicked up over this, there is a non-zero chance the agent could get promoted 🤷
I was denined a visa into the U.S. from a European country where I'm from because I was jobless in title so they rejected me for fear of staying and working illegally...they seriously thought someone who can afford a vacation in New York needs to stay in that piss-low quality of life country to do a black market job for the rest of their life

I spent 3 hours driving back and forth between two different court houses (10 minutes apart) to submit paper work for my parents assets. No one knows what their doing in government. I've been cheated from the government countless times. I tried fighting my property taxes last year. Negotiated for a lower price and was screwed over. Submitted paper work to counter the offer. They lost my paper work and now I'm stuck with their pricing.
If it was just laziness, his lawyers would not be stunned. This is unprecedented, and when the reason behind it eventually comes out, I bet we will all be stunned and dismayed.
I think it's exactly as theorised; some uncaring middle-aged desk worker saw the name 'moist', assumed pornography was involved, immediatly axed it and didn't bother to care or look into it further.
This makes me think of one time where I was at a gas station sitting in my car in the parking lot right outside the front door of the convenience store. I had some trash in my car to throw out and I looked for the trash bin, which is often times right outside the front door but would always be overflowing with trash, but this time and I started noticing this at other convenience stores, there were two trash bins and they were both placed as far away from the front door as possible. It was then I realized that they along with other stores started doing this because rather than just having an employee empty the trash more often, they decided it would be a better business decision if they just made it as inconvenient as possible for people to throw their trash out as they walked in or out of the convenience store so their employees didn't have to spend as much time emptying the trash. Sure enough, it worked, I never witnessed those trashes full ever again. I just thought "Gee, great idea! This way people will have a good excuse to just throw their trash on the ground of the establishment instead!" as I accidentally dropped the trash from my car onto the pavement and drove off.
As an immigrant and currently going under another USCIS process, I both understand the frustration and glad that normal citizen on the same page with me about the system.

@@puddingsimon2626 what are you even saying thats not how the system works people that i know have done that buts all been hell and suffering you can thank greg abott for exploiting those people
@@majora919 The problem isn't that too many people come in, the problem is that they let the wrong people in and the ones that should be allowed in are being denied.
@@Semibrucelee you listed one example, look at immigration stats over the past 5 years then come back, it's so bad even your local news station is forced to cover it
Got the same issues with Canada immigration a while ago. The main problem is simple: there is no responsibility! Whatever it happens, nobody cares because nobody will have to take responsibility for the consequences. And it's a problem with administration as a whole, not only immigration services.
Zero accountability. Well, we do actually have a process for this kind of thing. The current government would just call you an insurrectionist for suggesting it.
Extend that to enterprise-level organizations: corporates, govt agencies, anything with more than 100 people. Apathy is off the charts and "I'm just here to do a job" is the general attitude.
If his applications for approval was submitted through online process... Yea... They are clueless. ALSO! If Australian can come into US without VISA for tourism and business through Visa Waiver Program as long as they do not stay pass 90 days. You can circumvent this by sending them to Canada for 24 hours and bring them back in. A lot of tourist does this a lot. Majority of EU/NA/NATO/US friendly countries have something similar to this.
Here's the problem though - whilst you can enter under the visa waiver program, once you've been denied for a visa you can never use the visa waiver program again. Hence the problem.

I have family working in immigration. The reason for that is because people from developed countries usually have money and won't have their votes bought with help from the government. I'm forever grateful for that relative. I'd probably be a life time democrat supporter if I didn't learn the things my relative told me. Never again will they see a vote from me
The fact that the only reason Charlie is famous is because he literally just gives the most normal and Humane takes on things most people consider bad or wacky just goes to show where our society is at
The immigration laws also go into personal histories aswell, especially for Australians. If they’ve even been caught once with dui on their record, America can say no to their arrival after all bills are paid with no refunds
This reminds me of Deadmau5 telling a story of how he was banned from America for a while after a bad interaction with immagration on the Canadian border. Apparently this is a common theme for people trying to cross into America from Canada where they just get banned for years or longer for no apparent reason.
I have worked for an immigration law-firm for ten years and I'm relatively certain I know why this happened. They were attempting to bring these individuals in under a particular status for foreign unskilled workers. What they should have probably done was bring them in under an O-1, alien of extraordinary ability or P-1, athlete or an E-3 since they are from Australia. The employees were probably denied (RFE or request for evidence) b/c they probably don't consider gamers to be employees b/c they don't get paid a full-time wage from moist's business, which is why he had to let them go so they just come in under a tourist visa instead. I'll be honest, as burdensome and labyrinthian as the immigration systems is, this is probably the lawyer's fault for misfiling the case. We minimally begin processes like these up to two years ahead of time to insure that everyone arrives on time b/c of all the twists and turns.
@@nine9nine9 That is a technical term determined by the prevailing wage for the occupation according to the department of labor depending on how their labor is classified. If they were classified in a manner that the immigration caps were already met of they were paid in any way beneath the prevailing wage or were not spending enough time working in the US to qualify they could be denied. And I forgot to mention that caps were filled for temporary worker programs for the summer in February
You're wrong. He tried O-1 or (P-1?) but the immigration official said there wasn't evidence to show they're special (he submitted previous performances and info about Apex eSports) and that's when Charlie got an EA executive involved to vouch for the team but the official still wouldn't budge.
If that is the case then my second point stands that this should have been filed minimally a year in advance. I'm dealing with an o-1 right now that has a history of RFE's. We are filing a year ahead of time. This should not have been a surprise to anyone.
I've been to the US for both tourism, studies and work in different occasions, last month I had a VISA appointment that I had to wait more than a year for, they just decided I'm not qualified for no reason because right now they are on a campaign to not let people inside so they have to pay for the process again, which cost has increased btw.
I have some background with that, it can be something extremely minor that the officer cannot approve the work visa. It’s never for no reason. If it was a TN visa it could have not met the parameters of your job. Or you’d be working outside the requirements. A lot of companies that prepare these applications screw it up before you even get to your appointment. I don’t know your particular situation. But if you don’t have what the officer needs as far as documents go or you didn’t provide the proof that you are qualified. You will be denied. Even if you don’t have your job duties in detail you will likely be denied. Just remember you are going to another country to work. You don’t have the “right” to work there.
Same happened for me when I wanted to get a touristic visa to visit my brother in US(who legally got there). I got declined in 10 mins cause the fact I got 2 jobs in my country isn't enough to make me return after the visa ends. They thought I will illegally remain in US while allowing every illegal immigrant who reach US to remain there. FUnny country tbh
Having a job in your country isn't enough. They want to see family, property, assets in your country. Having multiple jobs just proves you would find work fast in the target country. You're not helping your case. That's not the positive you think it is.
Specifically, multiple jobs is a red flag from immigration perspective. *The* singular job they want to see is a "career job". When you say 2 jobs, that sounds like gig / service economy stuff. That will get you nowhere on an immigration application to any 1st world country. All they see is somebody planning to overstay and do the same job in their country, off the books. So I'd say if you have multiple jobs, only list the "best" one. Choose whichever one would be most impressive to a materialistic girl.
I have been dealing with the US Immigration to get my British wife a visa for a while now. They have been accommodating to me and her, but I hear so many horror stories from my peers. I am sorry for everyone going through things like this.
love charlie for supporting apex and seeing his passion behind it is heartwarming, our apex comp scene felt neglected since day 1. appreciate him so much :)
I work with a big music event promoter and even a lot of UK/ British well known dnb DJs, and their MCs and band touring in the US making over a few millions had to cancel their tours because visas got rejected. And they have been seeking tour permits 1-2 years in advance. From the insight from that industry, coming for short term duration is usually easier to process, when you get into long term stays you have to have a proven career record for 3-5+ years. Their goal is to avoid people overstaying their work visas. And they put you in the blender with all the HB1- HB2, O, P visas that they only grant a fixed amount of work visas per year. Also, the visa process by the US DHS cost have quadrupled in price since 2023. The visas went from 450 to 1600 per person. The US is just doing a crappy job dealing with illegal immigration in all fronts and is easy to think that people crossing the border "are" the problem, but people overstaying their legally acquired visas might be an even bigger problem as there are estimates that this group accounts to anywhere between 45-55% of illegal immigration depending on who you ask.
My wife is a supervisor for the DPS and they had a worker there that kept sending me back home and rejecting me renewing my license over some bullshit and after 5 times going back and forth I finally called my wife over and explained the dumb reason why he kept rejecting me needless to say he no longer works there

There is a lot of paper pushing that happens at all levels of the government where people have to do their part and then it gets pushed to another team to work it. If at any point any of the ‘whatever’ number of teams that are involved say no, it can kill the whole project that may have been months in the making. That issue is further compounded by it being incredibly difficult to get rid of unproductive workers as there are a series of documented steps that have to be taken before the option of firing even hits the table. So you end up at a place where the people who can most likely affect good change leave before they have the ability to do so and the people who could care less never leave, even worse, sometimes get promoted
Ngl, he doesn't seem that mad. I have worked for both the Federal and a local government.

It's actually 100% true. In 2015 i worked as an assistant manager for Ukrainian based Dota 2 esports team Natus Vincere. We applied for US visas because we qualified for The International 2015 tournament and were denied 2 times for no apparent reason. Only on the 3rd time with a direct involvement of Erik Johnson from Valve and US Senator Maria Cantwell we were able to secure visas for players only, who participate in the event and leave the country afterwards. Those events were in the news and you can google it. I'm personally were denied visa's 3 times, despite not having any intentions to stay in US at that time. In 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine, i'm as a holder of Russian citizenship were residing in Ukraine and already was a strong opponent of the putin regime, so the decision were made to emigrate into the USA because in Russia the only thing that awaits me and my girlfriend were prison and death. We bought tickets to Mexico and travel to Tijuana, where we stayed for 6 weeks arranging things and successfully illegally crossed the border with a group of Latino migrants and were immediately detained after crossing by border guards. After that we claim for political asylum during the interview and were processed and let go free to connect with our “host” who we arranged prior before crossing, when we were still in Mexico. I'm not proud of what i did by illegally crossing US border, but i don't understand why is this so hard (almost impossible) to get a US visa and travel to US even when you have perfectly clean travel history, solid bank account and no problems with laws whatsoever, but so easy to cross border illegally and just claim asylum to let go free inside US.

so its 2 of 4 words
Maybe even a little "Weaponized arrogance" too
is that what Penguinz motto is?
Consider that illegals can get in undocumented and bussed and housed and fed but you have to jump through hoops just to go abroad, even fly internally in the US sometimes.
Consider in Europe (EU) that illegals can get in undocumented and bussed and housed and fed but I as a lawful Brit will need to be fingerprinted and have biometric security so I can be surveilled 24/7 just to go on holiday for a week.
Consider that the current US Gov considers Patriots enemies of America while leaving the borders wide open.
Consider they are robbing hundreds of billions from the taxpayer to fight war to protect the border of a non allied nation thousands of miles away which they profit from.
Consider that our Governments may be treasonous and working for special interests and not the peoples.

I spent the only 3 days in jail I have in my entire life because of government incompetence.

It took 3 days before I could get bailed out. Apparently the judge never wrote on the back of the ticket when I was at court, so it looked as though I just never attended court!!

at some point he says something like "the government doesn't fix problems quickly, because if they did they couldn't justify being so bloated with staff and procedures". Seems that way to me, as well.

I find it amazing that government employees in the U.S are a mirror image of the government employees in the U.K. I worked for the government here for 11 years. Story checks out!
What happens is the few people who are capable and willing to do the work have to carry the other 20 people in the department by slogging their guts out day after day for crappy pay, whilst the people not working gewt the same crappy pay for not doing anything, so it's worth it to them.
"Joyless husk zombie" Is how I would describe nearly every federal employee Ive ever worked with and Ive been in the military/dod contractor for almost 12 years.

Reminds me of the incompetence of the state government when it comes to people who ACTUALLY need disability. I've had severe health issues since I was 12 years old. I then went into a form of remission for my illness when I was 17-20 and was able to work and start college. Then after a bad case of pneumonia, it kickstarted my illness again. This time around I haven't been able to find anything to get it under control. Medications aren't working, salt and water intake isn't making enough of a difference, I've been to the Mayo clinic, have been seeing the best doctor in the country for this disorder, etc. This is ALL documented. Yet I've been denied by disability twice now. Their reasoning? "It's not severe enough". This is all decided by a single worker who has no medical insight. Now it goes to court where it'll likely be denied again.
Meanwhile I've heard from my dad who works in probation that he has clients who could CLEARLY work, who get disability. My doctor is also shocked that I'm denied when he personally knows patients who have been accepted when they could still be working as well. It's beyond upsetting. Like, I would LOVE to be able to work and not be bed-bound most of the day at 27 years old.
I'm on the same page , I've had issues since I was twelve and filing for disability does relatively nothing, no matter how many doctors you have vouch no matter how many court hearings or phone calls, nothing works . Meanwhile Several members of my family with little to no health problems get disability no problem while I've had two seizures just typing this and no one will hire bc of it can't get disability. Seemingly anyone who works in any part of the government is so incompetent it's sad

I work as a contractor for the DoD, and I was talking with a coworker who said they were initially denied their clearance because of their mom being a foreign national. Their dad is a high-ranking officer in the Navy with Top Secret clearance who works at the same shipyard as us, so whomever was doing my coworker's background check decided that, even though their dad is literally employed by the DoD with Top Secret clearance, it would be faster to deny them because of their mom being a foreign national.
I can see why. Their dad is high-ranking in the navy with Top Secret clearance. If your coworker's dad wasn't that, I guarantee the father would be denied. If their mother was a US citizen or legal immigrant, maybe then they would have a better chance. But given how their mom is a foreign national, yeah there's a risk posed there.
Not every foreign national comes with good intentions. And given the crisis at our Southern border and the policies regarding it from this administration, yeah there's just too much of a risk of planted spies to steal intel. It's very understandable why they were initially denied.

It took us 3 years to get my wife a greencard after we got married and had to stay apart all that time. she is from Thailand. We both work, no kids, no previous marriages, both higher education, 0 criminal record, extensive history of paying taxes. Literally the easiest most clear cut case. And the proccess only moved after I found somebody who knew somebody who told me a secret way to get in contact with the immigration office. After that it took less than 2 months.
I just got married and will try for a green card eventually. Any tips you can give me?
That.. I feel that.
It took me 2 years even with hiring a very good lawyer.

Fun fact: During CONCACAF Champions league, basically the most important competition for North American and caribbean soccer teams, US immigration denied the entry of basically half of the players from Violette FC from Haiti. They played with only 14 players available, so even if they had problems with someone getting wounded during the match, they had almost no options left. I mean, they won against Austin FC, but going to an official continental match with 14 players is barely enough. Everyone nowadays does at least 3 replacements during the match.
There is something extremely strange going on with Australia and the US. People of all walks of life are being denied entry from Australia. This story should blow up because I want to get to the bottom of this. I have heard 2 other examples from giant content creators

I won a trip to disney once when i was 16 with my friends, i'm from Brazil. My friends got accepted in a instant, i was rejected twice. One of the questions was "is your mom your real mom?' and i was like ???? i dont need to say it was traumatazing, they made like 20+ questions to me both times just to give me a non sense no. When my mom tried to ask why they just said that i could try again when i get older n buy the trip on my own.

I’ve worked at several jobs where my coworkers have messed up SO BAD, that I have to risk my job to fix a situation. Waiving fees I’m not authorized to- emailing customers off the clock to make sure I have information clear, and other things like that- just to fix the mistake. My bosses usually get mad at me for going to extreme measures to fix an issue, but the other people don’t even get assigned extra training. It’s just “try not to let that happen”
You are an MVP and from experience, find the right place that values you and you will go far
Unfortunately with this, because you do this the coworkers end up still being incompetent as they know "ahh yes, alec(?) will fix it, I don't have to worry if I do this right".
You create a standard of making sure everything goes fine, and sacrifice yourself to make sure everything goes smoothly, but it enables the incompetent coworkers to still not give a shit, and the bad training structures that are in place. I am not saying you shouldn't do this. You give a shit about what you do and how you do it, and that says a lot about you and your good intentions/work ethic.
But the sad truth is, that most likely even if you do say anything about it to your bosses or coworkers, it will go on death's ears and the incompetent will stay comfortably incompetent.
This is the curse on people that cares, in an environment where nobody cares or are ignorant. I do hope you at least affirm some limits towards yourself and the people around you. You will end up burning out if you continue going to extremes to make sure everything stays functional. You have to think of your well-being aswell. Please take care

As someone who works in local government and frequently deals with state and federal branches, you're mostly right. This is absolutely not personal. The problem is that federal and state governments are going through such a high turnover rate in these years and all of the standards are changing as they revise their policies. So new guys come in, they want to change how the rules work to make their mark, but their employees are also experiencing turnover, so there's no historic knowledge or experience to help steer the madness in between transitions.
It's a mixture of bad luck timing and incompetence that's keeping them stuck like this.

Half the case workers for Austrialian-to-US immigration blanket-deny as many people as possible because they don't want anyone coming over.
My housemate's inlaw was denied his visa because "I just don't think you'll want to go back to your country," and in the context of the conversation he was saying that Australia really has nothing to want to go back to. The in-law lives on/owns a ranch, and just wanted to come here for 2 weeks to see his newborn nephew.
Immigration law dictates that, after being denied, you can't be assigned the same case worker again. They do this because they know how blatantly discriminatory a lot of their employees are and wanted to give people a shot at eventual success. The second case worker just asked them for the story of how the in-laws met, married, etc., thanked them for their story and welcomed them in. Didn't even check any of the documents.
There is NO concrete standard being followed by 99% of our immigration case workers. It's utterly ridiculous.

So of course my tax return didn't match, they were checking his. There was a loooooot of back and forth via snailmail to correct this. Luckily we both had physical proof (pay stubs) for the period of time they said I owed money. After getting the final letter saying I owed them $0 finally (my dad didn't have to deal with anything thankfully), now I have my paystubs have my middle name as well.

Or what if the team is under some sort of criminal investigation. I've went back and forth between America and the UK all the time no problem.

Its easy to see who is being malicious if you pay attention. The issue is that enough of the people checking are also lazy and not paying attention.
Ex: If 50% is lazy or malicious and 50% who are checking are also 50% lazy or malicious, then only 25% of the bad actors get punished and 25% of the good actors gets falsely blamed.

We had people that when I left were on month 6 of not being paid at all.

This makes me think of one time where I was at a gas station sitting in my car in the parking lot right outside the front door of the convenience store. I had some trash in my car to throw out and I looked for the trash bin, which is often times right outside the front door but would always be overflowing with trash, but this time and I started noticing this at other convenience stores, there were two trash bins and they were both placed as far away from the front door as possible. It was then I realized that they along with other stores started doing this because rather than just having an employee empty the trash more often, they decided it would be a better business decision if they just made it as inconvenient as possible for people to throw their trash out as they walked in or out of the convenience store so their employees didn't have to spend as much time emptying the trash. Sure enough, it worked, I never witnessed those trashes full ever again. I just thought "Gee, great idea! This way people will have a good excuse to just throw their trash on the ground of the establishment instead!" as I accidentally dropped the trash from my car onto the pavement and drove off.

You can circumvent this by sending them to Canada for 24 hours and bring them back in. A lot of tourist does this a lot. Majority of EU/NA/NATO/US friendly countries have something similar to this.
That is literally counter productive. They need to be there for more than one day. They wouldn't even be here for a full 24 hours
Here's the problem though - whilst you can enter under the visa waiver program, once you've been denied for a visa you can never use the visa waiver program again. Hence the problem.

I have worked for an immigration law-firm for ten years and I'm relatively certain I know why this happened. They were attempting to bring these individuals in under a particular status for foreign unskilled workers. What they should have probably done was bring them in under an O-1, alien of extraordinary ability or P-1, athlete or an E-3 since they are from Australia. The employees were probably denied (RFE or request for evidence) b/c they probably don't consider gamers to be employees b/c they don't get paid a full-time wage from moist's business, which is why he had to let them go so they just come in under a tourist visa instead. I'll be honest, as burdensome and labyrinthian as the immigration systems is, this is probably the lawyer's fault for misfiling the case. We minimally begin processes like these up to two years ahead of time to insure that everyone arrives on time b/c of all the twists and turns.
But they do get full time salary
@@nine9nine9 That is a technical term determined by the prevailing wage for the occupation according to the department of labor depending on how their labor is classified. If they were classified in a manner that the immigration caps were already met of they were paid in any way beneath the prevailing wage or were not spending enough time working in the US to qualify they could be denied. And I forgot to mention that caps were filled for temporary worker programs for the summer in February
You're wrong. He tried O-1 or (P-1?) but the immigration official said there wasn't evidence to show they're special (he submitted previous performances and info about Apex eSports) and that's when Charlie got an EA executive involved to vouch for the team but the official still wouldn't budge.
If that is the case then my second point stands that this should have been filed minimally a year in advance. I'm dealing with an o-1 right now that has a history of RFE's. We are filing a year ahead of time. This should not have been a surprise to anyone.

I've been to the US for both tourism, studies and work in different occasions, last month I had a VISA appointment that I had to wait more than a year for, they just decided I'm not qualified for no reason because right now they are on a campaign to not let people inside so they have to pay for the process again, which cost has increased btw.
If you're illegal, this government wants you.
I have some background with that, it can be something extremely minor that the officer cannot approve the work visa. It’s never for no reason. If it was a TN visa it could have not met the parameters of your job. Or you’d be working outside the requirements. A lot of companies that prepare these applications screw it up before you even get to your appointment.
I don’t know your particular situation. But if you don’t have what the officer needs as far as documents go or you didn’t provide the proof that you are qualified. You will be denied. Even if you don’t have your job duties in detail you will likely be denied.
Just remember you are going to another country to work. You don’t have the “right” to work there.
Same happened for me when I wanted to get a touristic visa to visit my brother in US(who legally got there). I got declined in 10 mins cause the fact I got 2 jobs in my country isn't enough to make me return after the visa ends. They thought I will illegally remain in US while allowing every illegal immigrant who reach US to remain there. FUnny country tbh
Fascist country. Fify
This is solely because you have family in the us. They always assume you are going to get a temporary visa to stat illegaly with your family
Having a job in your country isn't enough. They want to see family, property, assets in your country.
Having multiple jobs just proves you would find work fast in the target country. You're not helping your case. That's not the positive you think it is.
Specifically, multiple jobs is a red flag from immigration perspective. *The* singular job they want to see is a "career job". When you say 2 jobs, that sounds like gig / service economy stuff. That will get you nowhere on an immigration application to any 1st world country. All they see is somebody planning to overstay and do the same job in their country, off the books.
So I'd say if you have multiple jobs, only list the "best" one. Choose whichever one would be most impressive to a materialistic girl.
You aren't going to be voting democrat in a few years, so it's not worth it.
I have been dealing with the US Immigration to get my British wife a visa for a while now. They have been accommodating to me and her, but I hear so many horror stories from my peers. I am sorry for everyone going through things like this.
love charlie for supporting apex and seeing his passion behind it is heartwarming, our apex comp scene felt neglected since day 1. appreciate him so much :)
I work with a big music event promoter and even a lot of UK/ British well known dnb DJs, and their MCs and band touring in the US making over a few millions had to cancel their tours because visas got rejected. And they have been seeking tour permits 1-2 years in advance.
From the insight from that industry, coming for short term duration is usually easier to process, when you get into long term stays you have to have a proven career record for 3-5+ years. Their goal is to avoid people overstaying their work visas. And they put you in the blender with all the HB1- HB2, O, P visas that they only grant a fixed amount of work visas per year. Also, the visa process by the US DHS cost have quadrupled in price since 2023. The visas went from 450 to 1600 per person. The US is just doing a crappy job dealing with illegal immigration in all fronts and is easy to think that people crossing the border "are" the problem, but people overstaying their legally acquired visas might be an even bigger problem as there are estimates that this group accounts to anywhere between 45-55% of illegal immigration depending on who you ask.
My wife is a supervisor for the DPS and they had a worker there that kept sending me back home and rejecting me renewing my license over some bullshit and after 5 times going back and forth I finally called my wife over and explained the dumb reason why he kept rejecting me needless to say he no longer works there
BUT if they came through the southern border, they would be given welfare, a place to stay, and a card with thousands of dollars on it.
if they look brown or mexican
@@thekingofprotoss4376 not even, chinese, african, European and asians are all going through.
At this point I'm tempted to go myself.
And an ID that says vote blue
Have you ever me an undocumented person before??? Actually baffled at this lol.
@@kevengarcia1669 these people are genuinely deluded
If anyone wants any comfort after dealing with a case like this, watch Louis Rossmann videos on him dealing with the New York City government. It's mind-blowing.
It's like.
Looking at keanu reeves lesser, brother .Angry reeves. It's just a game, life sucks.We're a helmet....lol... And to say that he's best in the world is a bold claim, doctor disrespect holds that one.
He said moist blanket. Where can I find one of these? Asking for a friend hahahahah
i’ve never seen him see him so mad!
There is a lot of paper pushing that happens at all levels of the government where people have to do their part and then it gets pushed to another team to work it. If at any point any of the ‘whatever’ number of teams that are involved say no, it can kill the whole project that may have been months in the making. That issue is further compounded by it being incredibly difficult to get rid of unproductive workers as there are a series of documented steps that have to be taken before the option of firing even hits the table. So you end up at a place where the people who can most likely affect good change leave before they have the ability to do so and the people who could care less never leave, even worse, sometimes get promoted
Just enter illegally its legal now
I know this is designed to be a joke but if f****** hurts my brain
@MegaStrega me too, man
@@MegaStrega It's literally not a joke though.
Get some free housing too.
And a debit card with money they don’t even need to compete to be a winner.
Ngl, he doesn't seem that mad.
I have worked for both the Federal and a local government. No matter what the "rules" are, you can always, always, ALWAYS, run into that person or group of persons in the system who just does shit how they wanna. Rules and regulations are rarely enforced uniformly. I would guess his applications got the "unlucky" clerk.
I work at a state run mental institution. There was an employee who had an incident bas enough to have to be dragged out by security. Some months later hes back in an office administration position
See, Canada has Ties with China, similarly to Australia, I feel there is a flag somewhere in there relative to this attribute.
