Dear Editor:

Here's my immigration sob story. The good news is that I'm now an official, lawful permanent resident. My wife, an immigration attorney, (and beautiful woman), meticulously completed all the forms and interviews with me, joking that I could fire her if she fell short, and that not all alien spouses are females! Back home, (U.K.), I had a good job, friends and family. At University, I was first in my class in Computer Science. I had worked for major corporations, in the U.S. too. I moved to the U.S. (with visa), and not unlike many foreign doctors driving cabs, I found myself, unable to obtain a position in my field, software development.

Demoralised after many months, after receiving hundreds of rejections, virtually no interview, and no position at all, not waiting tables, not working as a shop clerk, I am nearly going "mad!" (The unemployment figures and unemployment compensation stats. do not include me). So far, this is not the American Dream, it is the American Nightmare.

Mr. Smith
