    Use your work Visa and passport entries. I used my resident visa in my passport.

    I too have had a CDL for about 4 years and never used it. I didn't go to any trucking school I simply took the tests and borrowed a friends tractor and got my CDL. I want to find a place that won't ask me to take a refresher course and will train me without making me go into debt before I ever drive a single mile.
    Sorry I'm not trying to sabotage the thread but I can relate to thread.

    It's an insurance thing.

    So would Schneider be the way to go even if I don't start as a tanker? I think I can only do the western 11. Also is there a way to switch during orientation if you find someone who wants to team? I would love to team for a half a year to a year. If any one knows please help me out thanks again .

    If in Mavericks hiring area they will take you with no refresher course. I got on with them and had been 2 1/2 years since got cdl.

    I think the cut off is 3 years to begin with.

    could be but during orientation I was told all you need is an active CDL. Would be worth a call to recruiter to check.
