EXS Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 A girl I know is heading to Europe soon Her boyfriend is waiting for his divorce to be finalised He has arranged a 3 month Schengen work visa through a company, which was granted on the premise of a job on arrival She has known him for 6 months He has only bought her a 1 way ticket Has anyone heard of this scenario before? Is it feasible or is there something more sinister going on? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eff1n2ret Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 It might just be feasible, but she needs to know exactly what she's letting herself in for - so does she know what job is awaiting her, and is she qualified to do it? If she's been told she's going as a waitress, hairdresser, housekeeper or the like, it's unlikely that a visa would be granted for such employment and it's quite possible she's being trafficked to work in a brothel. If she doesn't fancy that line of work, better to find out before she goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joost Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Which country would that be within Schengen? In the Netherlands this would be a situation i would not trust. It's quite hard to arrange work visa's for ordinary jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
