USA, Canada / Girlfriend Re-entering Canada! CBSA issues - how long does she have to leave the country before re-entry? [4]

Sucks to hear this. Pretty sure she's gotta wait a year before coming back? If that's not correct then at least 6 months prior to coming back. I'm betting going to the carribean and coming back is what screwed you up here.

Law / Obtaining PESEL, ID Card and Passport in Poland [39]

Sorry guys I was trolling :p couldn't help it. That's why I ended my post with, ask your local consulate. Seems to me like this guy's needs to do a little asking around through official channels. Just my 2 cents

Law / Obtaining PESEL, ID Card and Passport in Poland [39]

Nope he'll only be allowed a temporary one, once that expires he won't be able to get a permanent one.

:p ask your local consulate.

Law / How can I get Polish citizenship after been married to a Polish spouse [75]

wow, some scary situations here. I'd say if you were refused refugee status twice, and now want to marry..that won't look good for you in the eyes of immigration officials. Plus who knows if officials read this forum looking for foreign nationals trying to marry for citizenship :P

Also for anyone commenting on living in Poland and wondering if they need to speak the language...based on what i've read, after you fulfill the requirements of living in Poland legally for 3 years (while married) you will need to demonstrate that you speak the language. Please correct me if i'm wrong....

But hey, the above is just my opinion.

History / Any ideas what this is? Solidarnosc medal? [5]

whoa thats cool. any interest in selling that? my (soon to be) fiancee's parents are from there and i would love to present that to them as a thank you *insert emotional sentiment here* since they participated in the solidarity movement.

No worries if its not your place to give away/if you want it. Just really rough what everyone in Poland (and anyone who worked at the shipyards in Gdansk went through) and would love to have a piece of it to give to them.

Thank you. Sorry mods that its off topic.

Life / "Play" Internet contracts for international students without PESEL code. [7]

Hmm, what about for other EU citizens that have the equivalent? I'm guessing the answer is still no....

Looker, any idea (for pre-paid) what it costs for a SIM with 1gb or 2gb of data with talk and text on PLAY? My limited polish is failing me and i don't trust translations :(. Thank you

Food / What are my chances if I open Grill of Serbian cuisine in Poland? [14]
