    How long are you thinking of going? One month, three months, forever? What do you want to do when there?

    You haven't given us much to go on :)

    Well if you are a college student you can get a J1 visa for 3 months. Other than that, unless you are super highly educated and in demand and might qualify for Fulbright scholarships and the like, the only available option is entering the Green Card lottery and winning yourself some citizenship.

    The chances, of course, are very very slim.

    :confused:A friend of mine is over there on a 6 month visa? Might be through hurling? But 1 of my mates said there was a 1 year visa available now????? Not a student so J1 visa doesn't really appeal to me.....
