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

    Ok, I get it. Again, I wasn’t trying to bust your chops, just couldn’t figure out how the country you are living in is foreign. If the country puts barriers to entry like that ( you have been there for 6 years and they still consider you foreign? That doesn’t make sense to me) then I understand why you consider it foreign. Just curious, and you don’t have to answer this, is your wife a native there? Does not marring a native not give a person some standing?

      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.
