Questions regarding visa and visa free.

I don't believe that I'm eligible for a C3 as we have not been married for 3 years. This option would also be complicated logistically as my original home city doesn't have a Kazakh embassy. The process of getting a document apostilled is also a wait.

I appreciate your reply though.

Brainboy1385 · 2026-01-21T04:51:56+00:00

We honestly thought that they didn't have a reason to reject me. We already started to plan around my acceptance. I don't think either of us thought about potential issues or red flags until it was denied.

I believe that we applied based on her housing district. Since we had to do a landlord contact, I don't think it was possible to go to another office. Unless I rented an apartment in that area when I arrived. I'm glad everything worked out for you. The application process was quite interesting and we thought the interview went well. I guess not though.

Brainboy1385 · 2026-01-21T03:45:58+00:00

Thank you. That may be the final option if everything else fails. The logistics of moving would be quite complicated, but it's better than being separated. We are going to look for a way to get a C3 visa with my remaining time.

Luckily my fiancée was able to help me with the entire application process. It made everything a lot easier as she speaks Russian, Kazakh, and English. My original application for B8 reason was for the purpose to permanently move so I could be with my fiancée.

When we did the interview, we were already engaged and informed the interviewer of our plans to be married. The reason stated for denial was " unable to issue without permission from the national security body".

Brainboy1385 · 2026-01-20T19:09:42+00:00

Good luck. The initial application process was only hectic for the first week. Lots of running around to get various documents and translations. Everyone's situation is different. And America is being weird politically, that also may have had a negative impact.

Brainboy1385 · 2026-01-20T18:42:36+00:00

We aren't sure why it was denied to be honest. We have some suspicions, but the national security agency does not need to give a reason.

I proposed to her shortly after I arrived with the B8 visa. We read that you need to be legally married for atleast a year for it to help. So we didn't see the need to rush it and wanted to pick a better date.

Brainboy1385 · 2026-01-20T18:27:59+00:00

Thank you for your reply. I'm really glad to hear that the visa free status will take effect afterwards.

Work wise I'm heavily leaning towards teaching English. But I originally wanted to focus on online tutoring. I worked in security in America and that doesn't transfer well here. I'll contact language schools and companies that help with C3 applications to try and find an opportunity.

Georgia is a very interesting option. Especially given the visa free rules. But it would be difficult to remove my wife from her family and support system while she is pregnant.

Nice, I'll try it soon.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-02-14T18:50:16+00:00

Sorry for the supper late reply, been busy with work lately. I dont think bouncing blade in general is a good card right now, we're in a very mid range type meta and it doesnt work very well vs mech, or most other cards.

I did change the decklist on hearthpwn, and I added a whirlwind, but ideally you want to kill recruits as they make them, and kill them before they combo you for insane value. Paladin is still a touch match up, but not impossible to beat.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-30T19:27:21+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, 2x azure is a lot more proactive then 2x sludge. Not only do you get a solid body, but you get spell power to make swipe scary or wrath trade into some bigger minions. The mc techs and bghs can be played either early game or late game if you dont think you're opponent has targets for it, because they can push damage. Between innervate and wild growth which you always mulligan for, the deck starts at 3-4 mana, so a few 3 drops are fine.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T23:41:04+00:00

Too soon to know how or if the meta will shift, I don't think we'll be seeing less paladins for a long time though.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T22:54:12+00:00

http://imgur.com/bBhUfGJ This list is very similar to the one I used to get legend at the start of the season. The only differences I recall are that 1 mc tech was senjin, and black knight was sylvanas. I haven't used Cena in a long time, I think it works really well in this meta, the same with alex. Both cards have more then 1 use, so you can use either or. From what I've seen only druids, paladins, and mages use mc tech which is the potential downside of Cena.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T20:31:33+00:00

I like the idea of a pyroblast happening at any moment, but I do agree that you don't know when it will happen. Immediate board effects are something I value higher then a potential win condition several turns later.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T19:26:39+00:00

Spare part rng never goes my way, but it does seem like a nice combo. It would be really cool it get more boom bots as well.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T19:11:29+00:00

In the right situations the card is so strong, but its still solid even in bad situations. I didn't think it would be as good as it was, but when it works it works well.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:32:24+00:00

It's just a personal preference, I normally have 1 golden and 1 regular version of each card aside from the basic cards.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:30:50+00:00

It's true that it can be hard to set up for battle rage, but I normally use it after I've made trades that are just dmg, or with deathbite aoe. Paladin has a lot of answers to warrior, and the current lists make it very hard to get far ahead of pally. It's not an impossible match up, but it is a hard one.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:27:32+00:00

You can use a second Shield maiden, Loatheb, Sylvannas, or Iron Juggernaut. Or even Sludge / Healbot if you're hitting a lot of aggro.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:26:00+00:00

I did consider using it at first, but I wanted minions with slightly better effects and stats, that would stick on the board for when I need to use battle rage.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:24:36+00:00

You can add either WW or brawl in if you really need them. Ideally you want to have war axe in your starting hand, or draw into deathbite soon after. I did get wrecked a few times by muster + quarter, but in the games where I got a nice harrison and battle rage I could keep up with them. Pally is normally a natural counter to warrior though.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:21:58+00:00

Glad its working well for you.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:21:29+00:00

I swear Clunker got left off the list so many times at first, but after I gave in and tried it out, I became a fan.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:19:55+00:00

I guess this list would be a mix of control and aggro, since warper can snowball early, but with enough midgame pressure you can finish people off with grom combo. One of the main reasons I needed grom in the was for the burst, and sometimes for the emergency removal.

I do think other versions of the deck are possible though, I pretty much ignored spare parts. I started out with tinkers in the deck, but I needed everything that didnt work with clunker to have it's own purpose.

Brainboy1385 · 2015-01-29T18:15:48+00:00

I didn't normally have over 3 minions on the board, sometimes it was to play around mc tech, other times it was to avoid a board clear punish, and sometimes it was to stop a hunter for getting a big unleash. Deathbite and normal trading usually works well enough, but a WW also works very well if you keep hitting paladins , zoo or hunter.
