Ok so I’m not going crazy so just opt out of it I guess or do Simons Plans until I get work.

Sweeeet thanks Simon

It’s funny zero comes out as more expensive than putting say 30k. Question are we allowed to use the discount t that aca gives us or does that come under public charge.

Its amazing the price difference as well between automatic and manual cars there as well. You can pick up a bargain if you know how to drive stick.

Is our overseas income prior to moving to the USA taken into account when applying for Obamacare? If so do I put the total earned from January to the month I move in the income section (all earned outside of the USA) it just put zero?

And at the end of the day as long as you’re happy that’s all that matters.

Have any of you signed up for the "Patriot America Plus Comprehensive Coverage" health plan?

Here's a link to Simons page with some great plans in case someone has missed them http://britsimonsays.com/health-insurance-for-new-immigrants/

I guess we just wanted a place where we could continue on the conversations once we had all moved to the United States. We all seem to have a pretty great rapport which of course is thanks in part to this forum bringing us all together. As more of us make the move no doubt there will be more...

Plus you are limited with the amount of miles you can use over the cost of a year right? Is leasing common in the United States?

Wow I didnt realize that the big ticket cars drop that much in a small time frame. I guess its the same with the smaller ones but it doesnt seem like as much of a drop.

Are most of y’all planning on staying in an air bnb vrbo or extended stay place before you secure work or are you going to sign a lease and pay the higher security deposit and get a long term place ( for those not buying straight away)

That’s going to be one big a$$ truck.

I’m looking for a run about in the same price range.

What country are you in?

My mother suggested buying a Sherman tank to start off with...me thinks she does not have faith in my driving skills.

I have been tossing and turning with this as well. My guy instinct is to buy an older car secondhand and rip around in that till I have a steady income and then get a car loan. Also getting a car loan prior to having a decent credit rating means you will pay more monthly if I understand correctly.

I recently went thru lax to activate and it was over three hours to get thru immigration. My flight though arrived at 5:30pm so I don’t know if it was a bad day or just an anomaly. Hopefully it will be a quick process for you guys.

First question did y’all mostly use the health insurance links that Simon posted or use the ACA plans when first moving over?

Hey Guys I made a life in America thread for us.
