London to New York...stuck
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to find a way to get to NYC to live and work and be with my girlfriend who is a US resident and citizen. We've maintained a long distance relationship for 5 and a half years. Yeah.
I came here to hear about peoples similar experiences and hopefully gain some tips and advice on how to do this (good jobsites?). I need an H1B or a TN (I have dual nationality as a Canadian). Been applying for jobs for months now and no Joy. I have a BSC in technology and 5+ years in a corporate environment supporting electronic trading systems. I thought that would make it easy.
I just want to get there as quickly as possible. I hear you asking why we havent married yet. I know thats an obvious option but without going in to detail - its complicated.
Any advice/warnings/tips or anything that could help would be highly appreciated. HELP!
thank you.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about the US visa system, or job market, but we have a large US section - http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=57 - if you ask in there, there are some helpful people around

Hi DanDanDan . Welcome to the forum.
Best bet for you is to post a topic on the US section of the forum. I'm sure someone will have some tips for you.

Next to that is a multi-quote button - if you want to quote more than one post, click this button on all the posts you want to quote, then click quote and they will all be included in your reply.
Hopefully that makes sense

There is a quote button on the bottom right of every post - clicking that allows you to directly quote that post.

Excellent information can be found in the BE Wiki, not forgetting the Living and Moving Abroad forum that will help you, another set of great help is the permanent threads at the TOP of each forum, they are very pertinent to that particular forum and makes sensible reading.
Moderators deal with any problems that arise such as inappropriate posts, spammers etc, you will find their names at the bottom right hand side of each forum's index in bold font.
Please contact me if I can give you any further help.
