What not a typical girl said about visas is correct, you need to have a job offer or a family member in the US before you can move here permanently. Now, about jobs. Right now is a terrible time to try to get a job in the US; unemployment is through the roof. In terms of your husband s industry, Florida is not a big player in television and movie production. There are a lot of live performances produced by Disney and Universal in their Orlando theme parks, but they don t film much there. Most television filming takes place in Los Angeles, Ca or New York City. Most movies are filmed in Los Angeles as well, although a growing number are being filmed in the state of New Mexico as well as Vancouver, BC in Canada. I know there are an excess of crews right now in LA because the studios are not producing as much as they have in the past. You often have to have connections to get in the door there. He may be able to find work at a local TV station as a rigger, though local stations are often low-budget endeavors that only produce a nightly news program in house. There are several stations in each major city. In terms of your business, I m not sure exactly what you mean by travel industry. Florida gets a lot of tourists, especially in Orlando, Miami, and the keys so there is a market for tour organizers and whatnot. Granted, in this economy, Americans are not vacationing as much. But if you are a travel agent, you will find that to be a tough business in the US. Websites like Travelocity and Orbitz have wiped out most traditional travel agents. If you are a travel agent, you might have better luck in the travel department for a company or university.
Hi there, I don t mean to burst your bubble, but unless your husband or you can get sponsored by a US company to work for them BEFORE YOU MOVE OUT THERE, you are not going to be able to get a Visa or Green card that allows you to live and work there indefniately.I have dual American and British nationality but I know a lot of people who have wanted to move to the States with British nationality only and they ve run into the problems above. There really isn t a way around it unless you already have a close relative that lives there that can sponsor your visa (i.e. a sibling or parent). Try speaking to the US Embassy for more advice - you can make an appointment to see someone there, but it s in London so you may have to actually travel there to speak to an advisor.
