New York is expensive ! The minimum wage is low and tax is higher. So you basically need 3-4k a month to life comfortably in a good neighborhood. If your planning to work minimum wage to get started id say go to New Jersey

Very true! You need to pass the written exam and have the learner permit for at least a month and then do a road test and pass it to get a license and as a permanent resident you can't drive on an international driver permit so be careful guys

Basically you require the original BC and the original translations. If you have lost the originals and getting a copy from the office in Colombo, I think it's the registry of birth certificates, will issue you the yellow one and not a white photocopy paper with a stamp on it. So make sure it's...
