Re: UK to Texas - what's it really like?

I just found getting around a lot useful as the places are just so different from each other. We just made sure we spent the days out and about so you can get a feel of the place. It was more taking...

Re: UK to Texas - what's it really like?

That's great. We got a lot done in less than two weeks. I'm sure you will do fine.

Re: UK to Texas - what's it really like?

She's 8. I think it's a good age to move really, although it might be 9 now. The visa's technicalities are on another level but I think that's due to some specific issues for us. Sounds like yours...

Re: UK to Texas - what's it really like?

We are just looking at the visas with the company now. The problem is my wife was working for a US employer but she was paid from their US office as they have no UK office. So technically it's not a...

We are in a similar position that my wife's company are looking to transfer her over next year. We went to Dallas for a visit about a month ago doing similar things to you.

Our move is likely to...

Re: Immigration visa advice

Would an EB 1/2 allow me to work as a spouse? I thought the eb's took years. Months I could live with!

Re: Immigration visa advice

Thanks Pulaski although not the answer I was hoping for. Can you apply for EBx and H1B simultaneously?

Grasping at straws here perhaps but is there another option?

Re: Immigration visa advice

Re: Dallas

That's definitely reassuring to hear about the public schools. If you could pass on the Facebook page too that would be great.

Re: Dallas

That's great to hear. It's hard to get a read on a flying visit and it's somewhere that doesn't seem to have a huge amount of expats compared to LA etc.

Re: Immigration visa advice

Thanks Pulaski.
So applying for an L-1x and requesting the company to start a GC shortly afterwards would seem a good way to go.
