Hej !
A question to you experts here:
I am employed as a PhD candidate/researcher at the Max Planck Institute for
Informatics (short: MPI), and an Austrian citizen. My supervisor will soon start to work as a postdoc/assistant professor at
Stanford University/Palo Alto, and has invited me to visit him there and
cooperate on a research project lasting several months - But I will still be
paid by the MPI in Germany, and return to my position here after my stay in
California.
The question for me is:
- Do you think I still fall into the Visa Waiver programme provided my stay lasts
shorter than 90 days (I will rent an appartement for the stay, but will have
a defined return date on my flight ticket) ?
- How complicated is it to make this stay last, say, 4-6 months (the MPI
would set the flight dates and accommodation accordingly) ? Which kind of Visa should I apply for ?
Thankful for any tips you can provide,
Gernot :-)
