    Default Has anyone relocated from UK to USA?

    I graduated in special fx make-up a couple yrs ago now and i want to relocate to the US for many reasons as its cheaper than it is living here, its easier for me to actually get into my work and i just always wanted to.
    But i havent got a clue where to start, how much money to save etc etc
    can anyone help?

    Fly to Mexico, cross the Rio Grande and ask for refugee status.

    Much easier and quicker

    Well, aside from the legal issues, which will be by far your biggest hurdle, there's things like shipping costs, housing, credit (you won't have any since you haven't lived here before, and people want to check your credit for EVERYthing these days), driver license / transportation....

    How do you plan to get a job in your field, and how do you plan to handle the residency issue? Employers have to prove that YOU are the best candidate for the job (better than US citizens and residents) in order to sponsor your work visa.

    It's a much bigger thing than just deciding to come here and getting on a plane. Even if you have money, it's still not going to be easy.

    I moved from US to UK and back again and even though I did it on student visas which were easy to get, it was still a bitch just get myself and stuff across the ocean with proper documents.

    That said, it can be done. If you want it bad enough, you will find a way Money may not answer everything but it sure makes things alot easier. Save as much as you possibly can! When you think you've got enough, save more. You will be surprised at the expenses that pop up which you never thought of.
