Description
Thinking about moving to the UK from the USA? Start here.
There’s a lot to organise — and knowing what needs doing, when, and where your American starting point changes the process can make a huge difference.
This 22-page Complete Moving Guide & Checklist gives you a practical roadmap for your move, helping you organise the important things without having to piece everything together from dozens of websites.
What’s inside?
Your guide covers the practical areas you’ll need to think about before, during and after your move, including:
- Your route and master moving timeline
- Documents and identity
- Driving licences and driving in the UK
- Money and banking
- Finding somewhere to live
- Work, business and remote working
- Healthcare and insurance
- Family, children and pets
- What to take — and what not to take
- Language and everyday UK terminology
- Making important phone calls
- Moving day
- Your first week and first month in the UK
- The little things nobody tells you
- Your personal move plan
- Important contacts
- Final moving checklist
It’s designed to be used, not admired. Work through it, tick things off, make notes and keep it handy as your move progresses.
🔎 Online resources included
The Complete edition also includes links to relevant telmyfriends online resources, so you can Learn More about individual procedures and practical issues when you need them.
Because those online resources can be updated independently, you can also check back for newer information when individual processes or requirements change.
And there’s a little extra help included…
Your Complete Guide includes your first month of telmyfriends Expat Basic free.
That gives you 15 minutes of live telephone interpretation to help when you need to make a call in the UK and English isn’t the language being used — or when you simply need someone to help convey exactly what you and the other person are saying.
telmyfriends doesn’t give advice, take sides or get involved in the conversation.
We simply interpret what you say and what they say.
