hi E well first you need your passport then you’ll have to register for citizenship in the US basically thats all I can tell you on the subject
Thanx Denny, i got my passport, will contact the embassy tomorrow or maybe even next week… thanks for the reply man
Do you have connections living in the US? Any family or friends? If I was moving to another country, I’d want to know some people living there who could help me in a bind. Preferably, some people that I could trust.
OK E talk to ya later wish I could help more
Got friends in the USA, but im looking into going to NYC, dont know anyone there so will be going solo. also looking into going to NZ, dnt know anyone there or migth even go to london, know some people whos kids are there but not directly.
to me its not about going to a place where i know someone, its more about going and doing something for myself, taking that chance and try tomake my mark…
Thanks Denny, no worries buddy….
Den pretty well summed it up 31….
Hope things work out for you…
Thx Qzzzz, hope alls well on your side…
Guess I’m late for this one lol! I would say the same as Denny. Good luck to you and let me know if you come to Tennessee!
Will do sweeti…. ;)
until you acheive citizenship, you can come over on a work visa….
believe they last 4 yrs but time may have changed… either way, there is a set time, at the end, you will be forced to either become a citizen or pay for an extended work visa…
can’t qoute me on this, it’s been a while since i knew a person that went through all of this… so the laws might have changed (especially after all the ‘undocumented workers’ crap that’s been going on…) if i find anything else i’ll let you know…
thank boyrs, appreciate it

Hey im from NZ (hope that means New zealand) but live in Aussie, its a pretty good place to go..
Why did you move to Aussie? and is is better there than NZ?
Awesome, USA is great–My boyfriend came here from Canada–we’re just looking for a sponsor now-You’ll love it. -but travel wise, advise—a lot of singles and TUMS for heartburn lol Fast food places will be the death of all today lol. All the best.
I work at a U.S. Embassy. In fact I was in South Africa last month…Pretoria. You also have an embassy in Cape Town. Go talk to the Consular Officer/Visa Section. I will cost you $100.00 U.S. Dollars to even apply for a VISA. Make sure you have a plan for how to get to America, What you will do in America, know why you want to go to America, and also where in America you will go. They are going to ask a lot of questions. Do you have any American firends that you know well? It’s always nice to have someone who knows you as a reference.
Hey guys, thank you for getting back to me…
Spencersays: thanks man, bloody hell, thats like R800 buks, lol nice, but will be worth it hey, will do some more work towards it next week, currently trying to arrange work, and only if i do i will take things further…
I’ve got some friends that live near London, want me to talk to them? And maybe I can help you get into the U.S.
When You Get Here-Let Me know, I’m In Jersey, I’d Be More Then Happy To Help You If Needed ;)
Thank you… will do hey, i am currently just waiting to see what happens with my job offers and then from there i will take action…
