Default Moving to America

Hi all,

I have just got back from new york this weekend and have decided to come and live in america. I was wondering if anybody could help. I have been told that there is a shortage of warehouse packers and checkout staff and am sure me and my girlfriend, Sharon, would be more than qualified.

What I really want to know is, as we are british citizens, will we need a passport to move the the US and, if so, where can we get one each (we come from Liverpool). I think we would fit in in NYC very well. I have seen every episode of Sopranos and have even been watching Woody Allen films. I know he is a pervert and that, and his films are all really old because they are mostly in black and white, but it is a start. I intend to rent some more films from the video shop next weekend. By the way, Sharon loves When Harry Met Sally.

Anyway, if anyone can help please let us know. We would really like a big flat where that film was filmed with that guy out of Goodfellas in it, near the big park. If anyone on here would mind letting us stay with them until we get sorted we would be happy to bung you a few quid. We are hoping to fly out in a week or so. Cheers in advance.

Sorry folks. Idle fingers

With those qualifications you are well away. They will even pay you to come here on the QE2, instant greencard and 51 weeks holiday a year.

If you go to Florida it's even better.

Have you ever thought about visiting Disneyland and checking out the Orlando area? I understand that there are only sunny days and beautiful women there, and the money grows on trees.
