It's actually quite difficult to plan that far ahead because we don't know what immigration crackdowns will happen or what laws might change between now and then. The business visa may not be an option at all like the volunteer visas now.

you can do that?... apply for a 2nd ED after current ends? Need to check with the school bout that, i do know they have a language course for German as well so if it's possible then yea i would definitely go that route, thanks for pointing that out man. Cheers

- yes you can do. My cambodian girlfried did this a few years back and yes can change languages so long as school has classes. Worth checking with your school.

Point taken, Guess only time will tell, not really fretting over it as i know theirs always going to be an illegal way to get a visa but it would be nice to know the options beforehand.. Cheers Brandon.
