Default Moving to USA/Illinois

Hi
My name is Paul,, I work professionally as The Celtic Seer, a Professional Psychic I met the most wonderful person two years ago and am now looking at Moving to USA to be with her.
Any help and advice on pitfalls and hold ups to this would be helpful.
I'm also looking to ship my property, a load of goods already boxed up, Do I need to List every item, What is the best company to use, what are time constraints, and what documentation do I actually need to go about doing this!!
Thank you so much for any help you can give

Hi Paul and welcome to B.E.

Just a quick welcome for you.

Should you need it, a list of all the moderators and helpers with their relevant countries can be found here.

The USA forum and its sub fora are here.

Sorry I can't resist...but then you'd know all that anyway. Wouldn't you?

Alistair.

It would be best if you repost your questions about moving in the US Forums...you will get a better response in that forum.

If you require any assistance finding your way around BE's many forums we have a team of concierges who will act as your tour guide...they will be pleased to help you. The concierge for the US forums is Kaffy Mintcake...please contact her if you need pointing in the right direction.

Welcome to BE and good luck!

JG already pointed out all the forums...but there have been quite a few threads on shipping goods that are worth searching out, but a lot of it depends on what kind of stuff you're planning on bringing.

Its just personal stuff, All preboxed, different sizes and weights I'm afraid, the only large piece of furniture is my double bed but its broken down into pieces except the mattress as can't break that down yet
And a small corner Cabinet, Cedar wood about 18 inch across and 2.5ft high and 8 inch deep
So nothing much really
