Moving to Florida with 16 & 18 year old
We are moving to Florida on an E2 visa next year after my youngest son has completed his GCSEs He is quite excited and is really looking forward joining High School,making new friends etc. However I’m wondering what advice you could give me for my then 18 year old ( he’s currently 17 ) He will have finished college by then and completed an extended diploma in music production. He will obviously not be able to work till we can apply for the GC after 2 years. I’vd Sourced a local community college but I guess he will have to go in as a international student not as a resident, but this I’m guessing is astronomical I’m at a loss what to do so any advice or similar threads would be great. |

Hi, welcome to BE. I can’t help at all about college, but this statement intrigued me.

Hi Thanks for the reply. In response to your question. Due to my husband “significant investment “in the US already ( he opened his U.K. company 10 years ago and set up a US company (but no branch) 8 years ago, all his business is put through the US company ) so technically we have jumped a few steps and need to now open a branch and employ. We have been advised that whilst there is no gurantee, as long as we tick the remaining boxes, there is no reason why we will not be eligible for a GC in 2 years. I’ll admit that I was surprised but also hopeful as apparently we are in a strong position already. Hope that makes sense |

Straight to an EB5 would be easier?

Quite simple, just don't do it. Its not fair to your kids at this crucial point in their lives. There are plenty of threads on this forum about moving with older kids. Read them and then make a decision.
