Yeah that caught my eye too but I assume since he spent most of his prior life in the US that would be the agency to check up on one’s history so to speak and not Australian agencies.

You have to have an FBI check to become a resident of another country?

Australia has their own FBI. . .

>> I’ve read that they check their shoes before putting them on. Seriously!

> We have to do that here in Florida. Snakes, scorpions, black widow and brown recluse spiders...

Hell I have to check my shoes before putting them on, and I live in Upstate New York!!

(Of course, that's mainly because my cat might have puked in them overnight... remember Fat Freddie's headphones?)

Yep.

Almost all countries require a clean bill from the federal government of your citizenship

When he heard about it, Obama asked if Woz spoke Australian.

Wozniak says he plunged into the lengthy series of visa applications, medicals and FBI checks before finally being accepted.

...

If you’re a criminal coming to America you don’t have to do any of that.

The only problem with Australia is that every animal/insect there is poisonous and wants to kill you ,ouch

Maye that's why Australia produced IED Hunter.

It’s a criminal background check. Other countries don’t want USA criminals moving into their country ... and ... it’s only the FBI who would give a comprehensive check (across the entire country).

Ask Eddie about that.

For a work or permanent visa, many countries require a criminal background check from current (and previous) countries in which you have resided.

I had to get one for a work visa a few years ago.

Is your cat related to mine? I turn my shoes and slippers upside down so if she is going to puke it’s on the bottom, not inside.

I also put slippers on in the house because we are never quite sure where she has left her little gift. ;-)

Texas and Austrailia are kinda similar then. Yet another reason for me to like Aussies
