bukieran Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Hi, We are moving in 8 weeks time from UK and I am getting together all the paperwork that might be needed. If anyone can help me identify the crucial ones to have with us (rather than shipping) then that will take a load off my mind. Bank What do I need to bring ? e.g. last 12 months statement, etters of credit etc.. Credit What is needed to get a local credit card ? What is needed to get gas, electric, tel, internet setup up ? Rental What paperwork is needed ? Schools What to bring , reports or anything? Medical Immunisations , bloods etc ? Thanks in advance, Kieran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jaynie Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Forgot the credit card section sorry, I would imagine whoever you open your account with would be able to provide info on credit cards and it shouldn't be much of a problem as they LOVE to get you into debt!

Guest brissy_pom Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Hi, Bring all the obvious documents, birth cert, drivers licence etc. In addition bring mortgage statements, electricity bills, telephone bill etc (shouldnt need more than 3 of each but bring more just in case). Open up a bank account here and transfer your money or bring evidence of money in UK, this is important if you are going to rent when you get here, especially if you dont have a job lined up (ive been through this and am also now a landlord) you need to be able to prove that you are low risk and have plenty of money to cover rents etc. Also you will need to line up a few people as references for both jobs and rental. I kept and still have a uk credit card and bank account, this was also very handy because even though I set up a bank account before getting here, i didnt have cards etc so this will see you through first few weeks. Other than that good luck - im sure you will love it over here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
