I have received a thon of european and asian visas and was sure i am aware on how it is done. I knew US visa is hard one but i couldn't know it's THAT hard. The next day after having qualified to NASL, i appealed for visa. It was more then 1 month before NASL I couldn't appeal earlier because to make visa you have to book flights and hotel with paying money. And it's not little sum i have to say. But still to absolutely any other country i could've made 5 visas in a row during this time, To US, even though we together with NASL worked very hard to get it in time, i missed it less then in 1 day. I will get visa in 8-th july 2:00 A.M. California time. NASL starts 8-th july in the afternoon but... sadly my trip to US will take 30 hours so it is absolutely impossible that i get there in time. But for now i have to get US visa for 5 years, so i won't have any problems regarding future NASL/MLG events, which i am going to prove to visiting MLG in July or next one. So since i also have multi European-visa, i hope my visa problems will end at least for my progaming career years =). Sadly, that's the issue with America. Obtaining a visa to visit, let alone to live and work in the United States is a bitch to put it bluntly. Sorry to hear you'd have to miss NASL because of this, but good luck to you in future tourneys. | ||

It was in 2008, I guess by now it must be worst, it's their damn "homeland security", completely worthless. | ||
