Does anyone have any figures on how many E2 visa holders go the whole twelve months? Ok, maybe not precise figures but just a feeling of the percentage of people that stay the prescribed duration.

To complicate matters, you have people that have been canned from their current job and get E2's from another employer.

You seem to be missing 20% in your poll.

Don't need a poll for this, anyway, just a source. The Ministry of Education should have stats for P.S. teachers, but don't know about crapwons.

Like meeeeeee.

I didn't last a year at that second one either though. But, I'm still here. Is that a win? Laughing

at least 4 out of 5 I'd think... despite being in the sticks, nearly everyone out here finishes their year... I would think 90+ % except for the fact that I hear of plenty of cases online, but then again, the unsatisfied whine the loudest and of the tens of thousands who've taught here over the years I've been here maybe a hundred or two I've heard secondhand about pulling a midnight run, mostly on Dave's
