What important documents should I carry with me in moving overseas?
Answer:
I moved overseas 5+ years ago. From my experience here is what you should bring:
*Social Security card
*Passport
*2 Certified copies of your birth certificate
*All medical records (doctors, dentist, hospital)
*Certified copy of your marriage (and) divorce
*A few copies of your resume
*A letter of recommendation from your previous employer
*Copies of the last years worth of bank statements, mortgage payments, car payments, insurance payments
*Any legal documents you have (such as a will, a power of attorney, etc)
*Last 7 (or however many you have) years worth of tax returns
*School records
*Drivers license and driving record for the past 5 years
These items will help you in getting a job, establishing a history to secure a loan on a house and/or car, and help your future doctors.
