This is his first post. He was not referring to his novia, "how to get some Costa Rican girls to the US for work???" At least that's the way it reads to me. He could have inlcuded more pertinent information regarding his true intentions to prevent any confusion as to what he really is looking to accomplish.
I agree with TP, this is a pretty unusual 1st post and the fact that he hasn't been back to clarify what he was really looking for adds to the mystery. Is it because he felt he was flamed for his question? Perhaps. Chastising him on his grammar and punctuation is kind of picayune. But then, he's already paid for his VIP membership ans so he might as well use it. If we unfairly misread him, he should better explain what he is looking for to put the speculation to rest.
A guy who is already ready to bring tica(s) back to the US, is not a complete newbie. Presumably he's been down there and if he does not have a specific tica(s) in mind then he is at least familiar with what they are like. Or if he hasn't actually been there yet, then the question becomes even more bizarre.
Is he talking about 1 tica or is he actually planning on importing a small workforce (or perhaps harem

)? Does he really want to bring her(them) in for work or is that just the cover story he was planning to use to get her(their) visas? If he really does plan on importing a worker(workforce), what type of work does he have in mind? H1b visas are given in cases where the employer can't find US citizens to do the same work (and not so easily given even for those cases). Does he have some sort of sweatshop operation in mind (in which case there are cheaper labor countries to recruit from) or does he plan to put her(them) to work in some sort of underground economy occupation, such as to pimp her(them) out (in which you could hardly put that type of work down on the application)? If work is really just a cover story, why does he really want to bring "some Costa Rican girls" to the US for? The most obvious guess would be that this is really about a specific novia that he has in mind. But then why his choice of words?
I also think TMan really NAILED what this guy has in store for himself if he decides to go ahead with his cockamaimey scheme and somehow succeeds in bringing this tica(s) to the US. Incidently, what TMan said applies even to non-pro ticas though it is particularly true with chicas who have worked as hookers, which seems likely to be the story in this case (or at least is in many such cases). It MIGHT also be somewhat less true IF there is not too radical an age difference between the guy and his novia (as is the case with TMan and his novia) AND if the chica in question already comes from money. But lets get real. I don't know how old this guy is, but most of us aren't too interested in chicas beyond their mid-30's if even that. AND the only reason ANY young and attractive woman would be attracted to guys that are as old as most of us would be because of the material things we can provide them that they can't get through any other means, which means we're probably not talking about upper-crust ticas.
A relationship based on the one hand lust of a guy for a girl and on the other hand a desire by the girl to have her material needs taken care of is not entirely a bad thing. Heck, its been the basis of many marriages since time immemorial. But it is not the most solid foundation on which to build things as both looks and wealth are fleeting and completely relative. Bringing a chica from a place where her options are very limited to a place like the US where your wealth is relatively unexceptional is asking for trouble if the main reason she was interested in you to begin with was your money. Unless you want to keep her locked in your house, or isolated by an inability to speak any english, she'll quickly become americanized and then you'll have the worst of both worlds.
As a final observation I would ask is why ticas? They can be nice but they can also be rather full of themselves compared to chicas from other latin countries. The biggest advantage they might have over chicas from those other countries is that they come from a country that many of us would actually not mind living in ourselves. They have less reason to want to leave and so could make good choices for guys who don't want to take the risk and trouble of bringing them back to the US but who want to actually move themselves to CR. But all that doesn't apply if you're talking about bringing them to the US. In that case, the latin bride can come from anywhere and there are arguably much better countries of origin for that sort of thing than CR.
IMHO, if you want a young hottie mate and aren't content to simply "rent" (which is really the best way to go about it), then it is much better to try and maintain that closer to their home turf rather than expose them to the spoiling influence of american culture. I think the ideal situation would be to find a Colombiana (definitely non-pro) or perhaps a Nica (ie not a Tica) and live in someplace like CR or Panama. This mostly avoids the problems of immigration (for her at least, though it is also far easier for you to emmigrate than the other way around). It also makes it far easier to deal with the inevitable homesickness and the burden of familial ties that come with nearly all chicas (you'll save on your long-distance bill but you'll never escape being hit up to bail out every family "emergency").
I also completely agree with TMan that if you're going to go this route you want an a) non-pro girl who hasn't worked as a hooker and thus been as exposed to the "let's play the sex card to extract everything I can out of guys" mentality, b) is closer to your age and as educated as possible (the mindless drivel of some uneducated 18 year-old will get very old very fast) and I'd add c) has as few extended family commitments as possible. Obviously, finding someone who satisfies all of these goals AND yet is still young and attractive enough AND is interested in you, is probably next to impossible (which is why I normally prefer to just "rent" rather than bother trying to find it).
