Sam Hogg

Hi all,

I am new to the site and would appreciate any help or guidance where possible.

I am madly in love with an American girl from Iowa and would love to be able to get there on a permanent basis as soon as possible.

I am looking into every kind of visa that would suit and currently am coming up with either the marriage and finance visas or a temporary work visa, all of which seem to take a very long time to get sorted.

I am searching for work of all types in Des Moines, Iowa to see if a work visa is even possible.

I have a strong background in venue management, operational management, sales, health & fitness and policing.

If you could offer any help at all in regards to any points above, it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you so much, Sam.

At the top of the linked page you'll see a link to the USA immigration and visas page, that's the place you need to ask your questions regarding which visa you're eligible for, etc.
