Is a substantial fraction of the US GC holders seeing their PR status as a stepping stone similar way some SG PRs do?sundaymorningstaple wrote:AMG, you might be surprised. The are large numbers of US Green Card holders in the US military. As you are aware of, I'm sure, the US military has been a voluntary military since the end of the VN war. Considering they are not required to do military service at all as a Green Card (PR) holder, it says alot about PRs doesn't it? Sure there are a lot that wouldn't be great, but as cannon fodder, they'll do. They can spend the whole hitch peeling spuds. Once in, they will do with you as they wish. Not a real security problem.

Why not cut the waiting time from 7 years to 2 years if it is citizenship that they really and they feel it's worth fighting for. Sadly, there is the problems here if most just wanting to abuse the PR because it's so easy to get (or was).
SG PR as a stepping stone ??? seriously, if you are of Asian Origin, the SG PR has ZERO value, absolutely no value, other than it being a Myth that the SG PR is a "STEPPING STONE" ..x9200 wrote:Is a substantial fraction of the US GC holders seeing their PR status as a stepping stone similar way some SG PRs do?
