Re: Moving to Netherlands

There is a shortage of IT staff in NL, however I am not sure what the chances of getting sponsorship are. I loosely work in the IT space, and don't know an American who is here under sponsorship.

Re: Moving to Netherlands

Thanks for the information. My wife is a writer and operates as a business in that sense, I wonder if that would be enough of a business. I don't know if that will work. I know you have to make around €1,500 month in income. There is also a minimum number of customers/clients you must have and numb...

Moving to Netherlands

I have just about given up on the USA and I was wondering how hard it is to move to The Netherlands?
