I suspect a lot to do with nationality and maybe attitude/appearance. She must have given address or something ...

Re: One guy dodging , one guy critically injured!

Re: question about apply EP

Thats not how it works.

Need someone to offer you a job, you agree, and then they apply for you a pass.

The employee doesnt apply for the pass.

Just come on a standard tourist visa and give it a go looking for work.
