How To Get Help Paying Rent In Nyc
Moving/Living In New York?
Hi, i currently live in the UK, and it’s my dream to move to NYC when I’m older. I’m 19, and i plan on moving within the next 3 years. The plan is to work for the next 2/3 years, and saving up the money i get, to be able to live off whilst I’m there until i find a suitable job.
Now for the questions…
1) How easy/hard is it to find a job in NYC? Now I’m not looking for a big/fancy job, just something small to keep me going e.g working in a restaurant, clothes store etc.
2) How much will i be looking to pay for the rent an apartment? I’ve been looking over the net and seen some that are going for around $800. Location would ideally be in the city (i figure this would be expensive) OR on the outskirts.
3) Do my plans seem realistic? Or am i getting in way over my head?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Your plans are unrealistic in that you can not just arrive in NYC and begin looking for a job as a foreign national. That is against the law and the terms of you visitors visa. You will not be able to get a work visa for general employment since no visa like that exists. You would have to gain employment before arriving in NYC and that employer would have to sponsor your visa.
As linked above, go to the US Embassy website.
