First steps in moving to USA from UK?
What is the very first thing we should do (in terms of forms etc)?
Who can we speak to about best thing to do?
thanks in advance
Answer:
Each person must have their own visa. And each person must get their work visa on their own merits. Her visa will have nothing to do with yours. If she has no skills though, I don't see how she could possibly get a work visa.
She needs her own visa if she wants to work. However, if she just wants to chill, she goes as your spouse. Most spouses end up working illegally :)
Talk to US Embassy in London
Go and see a doctor..You need your head looking at if you would want to go and live in that shitty place.
Put your Name down for a gun for when you get their!
wear a bullet proof vest if your planning to go anywhere near any military bases and i advise you to duck.
Those muppets shoot at anything that moves.
Why? I'd rather live in the U.K.
Apply to NHS for brain removal and fat implants
I envy you and recommend that you don't pass this opportunity up!
I recently worked for my company for 11 months in Pittsburgh but am not sure if your sponsorship offer is the same thing. My company paid for a specialist company to take care of all the legal matters but I still had to do a lot of work myself. I ended up with an L1 visa and my wife and children all got L2 visas. My wife could work using her L2 after she got permission to work which took 90 days after arriving in the US. My children attended school there and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
I would approach the company who has offered to sponsor you and get them to seek professional assistance. 2 things you need to know - get everything sorted well in advance of your trip, it took 3 months from the start of the proceeding to actually getting our visas, you will have to visit the US Embassy in London and leave your passports with them for the visa to be added. Secondly, as soon as possible after arriving in the US, apply for a social security card, you don't exist in the eyes of the utility and credit card companies without one.
Oh and thirdly, mentioning credit cards, try and get an American Express card whilst you are over here otherwise you will have to wait while you build up a credit history before you can get one.
Good luck!
If you are hot, just give me a call
Check out the US embassy website, it is very helpful regarding visas. I wish England were as good at protecting our borders as the US.
God have mercy on you! Don't let the door hit your bums on the way out. I can't believe you want to go to the Land of the Un-Free. Good luck to you, you'll need it!
1. save up 50,000+ dollars (US)
2. rent a small place (cheap)
3. get a job (chashier or waiter) and get some money, while doing that, look into what job you really want to do
