Also - if you've worked before and are laid off, unemployment pay is typically available.
You can do it Boulder - glad you're so excited.

I wish you well and much happiness in your new country. I just got a taste of how beautiful my old country actually is.

Living there could be some hard adjustments. The reality sets in... Have I changed? Will I manage the financial side to start a new life back in my homeland? (I'm not rich) but comfortable.

I just want to thank everyone for the advice I have had here. I don't post often but I do read lots which has been so helpful. We were planning on going to Canada (as it is easier to go there) but now this has come through, we are completely stoked.
We are going to be so busy these next few months but I don't care about that! LOL
Anyway! I just wanted to share my good news.

The money is good for us and more than what we get here by quite a way. We will be able to live comfortably so we are happy.
