Hi all,
I currently live and work in Britain but I would like to move to America and work in Las Vegas for a year or so. Has anyone out there already done this. How hard was it and how did you go about it. At the moment I am just planning to apply for lots of jobs in the hotels and casinos nearer the time I want to leave but if you know of a better way, please let me know. I know that I will need to find a company that will support my visa request. Any help would be great. thanks.
Angie

hi angie, i am trying to do the same, i think there are some companies that will seek sponsership on your behalf for a fee but i dont know how reprible they are, so be careful.
The ony way u will get there is through sponsership/family/marrage/investment into a company of $250,000 min

Hi Guys, be careful who you deal with, if a company wants you they will sponsor you for free.

I moved here to Las Vegas from Scotland and found a sponsor, the best advice I can give you is find a great Attorney, he/she will guide you thru the process.

I will give you any advice based on my experience

Do NOT move out here. I have lived her for 12 years, and this is the worst economy. I have been out of work for six months and I am highly skilled and educated.

Stay where you are, trust me.

I dont think you`ll have much luck especially coz of the recession. You need to be sponsored to work in America and i dont think a company would be willing to go through all the paper work when they can just post an add in the local agency. Unless you have a specialised profession. I tried but had no luck, i work as an electrician. Theres all types of work over there but more hotel/bar/casino type jobs. Try Austalia.

Hi Jaide, right now is not the best time to apply for anything here, after the recession will be the best time to start looking. I was fortunate to be specially trained and qualified, and even then it took several years for me to my Green Card
