Always had a cheap desktop computer and never thought a phone was worth it. Is there a reason people like me should reconsider?

Yeah, my wife’s a citizen of this country. I just recently got residency, but those restrictions still apply.

I just don’t have to renew my tourist visa anymore and I don’t have to fly out and back into the country trying to every 3 years.

It also lets me get employed by a private company without the need of a work visa.

But I still can’t hold professional jobs. I actually was looking into going to med school at one point to be a doctor here.

School is cheap here, then I found out that even if I go to med school here I’m not allowed to practice medicine.

It’s actually a bit annoying, but now there is one less doctor in this country.
