    I was about to post the same thing. I am guessing everyone has either activated and moved or is trying to work out what is the next step. We should have a thread for Oceania folk that are moving.

    Also take into consideration that a lot of places won’t rent to you if you don’t have a job. So real estate agents ask for 6 months rent in advance. So you may have to stay in an extended stay place until you gain employment.

    It also depends on your field and where you’re moving to. 20k will go further in Vegas than it will in California for example.

    If it’s just you it’s more than enough to prove funding at the interview. I wasn’t asked about financials at the interview but the guy before me was so I guess it just depends on the officer.
