1) could be a paid position.
2) could take away a job that would pay an American citizen.
It should be ok. But check because they get real mad about those things if you don't fill out proper paperwork.
Edit: let me know the answer cause now I am curious.
Submitting my application anyways, mind, but there is a specific thing that may (but probably won't) happen that would directly result in my not being able to [E] this year even though I'd decided at PAX12 that I really, really wanted to do that this year.
EDIT: OK, it's definitely not an issue for me; the one thing that would've gotten in the way is a definite 'not happening' now. Leaving the question up in case it's relevant to other prospective [E] applicants, though.
I thought I'd drop my input on this cause I looked this up when I wanted to [E] for East 2012:
As a Canadian citizen you're totally allowed to work in the States if you have any work visa. When I was searching around for the right permit, I stumbled upon the most appropriate one (H2-B) which allows temporary work for non-agricultural jobs. The employer (Penny Arcade) has to sponsor you though, and I would assume that most of the applicants fill up the positions fairly quickly without even looking for foreign help (as well as applying for the amount of visas needed before the cap). The other visas (TN/H1-B) don't really fit in to PA but if you are a practising professional in the fields they mention you can probably just slide this job in as well as you're just getting another W2 for another job. (Also correct me if I'm wrong with anything I mention here).

If you are not an American Citizen, or living in the US with a valid work visa, you're not going to be able to Enforce.
I'm really sorry.
Mostly just asking this on grounds of 'need somewhere I can point my friend so he'll stop being all pessimistic about it, if he's worried over nothing'.
Considering PAX is going to an additional day this year, it follows that there would be a larger gap than usual.
Oh, I already know / knew that. That doesn't make the waiting or anticipation any easier to deal with. :P
If we are *not* selected for [E], will we receive an email that we've been declined?

I know the feeling. I've wanted to be an Enforcer a couple years and now I'm eagerly waiting and hoping I get in! Hoping having both customer service and security experience help! *stares at in box*
Two of my friends who applied got emails saying they didn't get in. So yes you find out either way.
I accidentally joined the enforcers twice, now i'm Two Enforcers!
I'm [E] since last Prime. On the App they have you do it so you are not required to post it in our forum. Makes things for PA A LOT easier. Good Luck everyone.
