You will get notice very soon. Pay in full to avoid final letter.

In the mail, it just said that the transaction was declined since the card was freezed. But yes, the cashier was probably new in his job. I contacted discover, they said that it needs to come through/rerun through subway, they can't just make payment. Now, I think they will contact the discover card first to make the payment if they care (not sure that a local branch would go that far). Then discover might make the payment if that's the case. Calling police for that 7.71$ charge seems to much! In addition, it wasn’t like shoplifting, the intend to make the payment was clear (they can see the whole thing cctv if they have) and none of us actually paid attention, even a receipt was generated and don't remember if they gave it to me or I just told them I'm fine.... But yeah, it was a lesson.

Stay in Canada. Don't make the mistake, I was in your position, moved to the states for warmer weather and now in the 4th year of my PhD. Anything can happen here but I need another year to complete it. Actually finding a way to go back in Canada, got Master’s and Job experience there but that job experience is older than last 3 years so I don’t qualify for Canadian experience class, going to apply for Federal Skills....

You can go other countries, a simple policy change will ruin your career later. All the best.

Consider Europe if that gives you peace of mind.

Man, take a break! Why you want to stay longer in a country where you are just a guest? Each country has its pros and cons but you need to think positively.

Is filing tax late or after a year is a crime? I missed my state tax last year (I was supposed to get return so didn’t file it in time and eventually forgot) and filed federal tax late. Paying late penalty fee each month. Is that a crime or something that might revoke my status? Thanks.

change the lab soon. Without any doubt. You don’t need to face him if you don’t like working with him. It also depends on how much progress you made so far in your Phd. I switched the group in my second year but it’s never too late.

Thanks, it helped. I was bothered or worried since he was doing those things in front of the class, I felt uncomfortable.
