Life in USA Experiences

As an Indian working and living in USA has its own positive and negative ipacts.

India hold superior position human trafficking,though majority of the peple goes to middleeast countries and good proportion goes to Europe and USA.

The main reason why indians going these countries is tomoney for family savings and better life.

What iam trying here is comapring here about immigration to Middleeat vs US and UK.

People leaves india to US and UK is for better job and life,and if u want to go yourself you should hold good education background or us profession is one with high demand(due to demand supply imbalances, for eg, there was huge boom in mid 2005s about Nurses.US expericening huge nursing shortage and US healthcare was in distress 2/2 shortage of nurses, so that created high openings for nurses, it nearly lasted for 3 yrs,and at this point it is saturated).
People goes to USA for better money and life,here is the debating question,what is the quality of the life?? The general lfe expericences in US isgr8 in my experince,comapring to india ,in US wherehuman life is valued than enything, no corruption in lower levesl, and everthing is easlily accessbile,You need money for all these and on the other side you reached USA for money and better living.
And more over law promotes family living so you can bring your family.
So the qaality of life is different.life is mechanical and nobody interferes others life and business, if youdont have your family the life is going to mechnacial and you feels like you are just living for money.Here is the question how many people returns having a Green crad or citizenship in US very few,.I saw few people left here, and main reason is they earned a decentamount in 10-15 yrs and stiil they will got decent salary they work in india.
US life quality is not great, though you get everything but you have to work hard till your last breath.

SO if you have a decent living in india do not consider USA.the money is not eveything, As said""70% of the human problems can be solved with money,30% above the money....The majorityof the indians who complains about the quality of life in USA comes under this 30%.they have decent earning but they missing good life,away from stress ,close to families and freinds...

Good luck NRI

Hi everyone ,I came to Houston,US just 2 weeks back .Before coming we will be having lots of question having all the answers full of fear and doubts .People who had been to US had answer question but all with negative replies .
Out of those many question one very important is Visa Interview .....
People was telling visa interview is going to be very tough .They will reject it.You should prepare yourself for rejection .Don't say this,don't say that,and so on.....But frankly speaking people are very nice at Chennai Consulate.

Few things what i can suggest according to my experience 1. Prepare all your docs and arrange them nicely. 2.Be prepared for any answer like your date of marriage etc .3.If you are gng with ur hubby then know little about ur hubby company and work profile 4.Wear official dress 5.Reach 45 min before the scheduled time .
6.Believe in ur luck and in god.

Bye
Have a nice day

I was in US for 1.5 Years, and my trip is a memorable one.
I have few things 2 share.
Firstly what i noticed is every individual maintains Personnel & professional punctuality which in india is soma wat hard 2 find. There are people here who do maintain but....
Traffic sense.. i'll give 100/100 for the people over there. They way people obey traffic rules..
Its quite contrasting here, even if one wishes to follow the rules, he cannot
Last but not the lease, cleanliness in public places.

Am not critisizing any 1, jus sharing my exp.

I personally feel you have some shorterm advantages when you move to US but certainly you loose much more if you decide to live here for ever.

Hello!
It's my desire to visit the US for a long time. So the opportunity came finally and I went there on a visitor's visa to participate in a seminar. I reached there on 23rd of August 2008 where I received a warm welcome by my American friends. The first man who received me was Mr.Mark Thomas from Ohio and he took me to my room where I was given wonderful facilities. Totally it's an amazing experience and all the people I met were very kind, polite, gentle, helping and caring. It's an educated society and everything is so systematic. God blessed this country and it's people. Let me take this opportunity to thank all the wonderful people I met when I was there as a deligate for one month. I returned to my great land India in September 2008. Thank you so much and God bless America.

well sir,its your own opinion i believe.
But did u get to think that,our past generations(our parents,grand parents)lived their lifes with in the budget and sometimes it overcross their limit.
Be happy that our generations are earning so much and they are ready for any challenge.These days,a wife earns equal to her husband and they plan accordingly to get a better life.
who told you that we dont enjoy?
we do enjoy.
As a matter of fact ,many couples now a days plan for even the days after retirement.
Dont try to point out blindly.

These days, people are living like beggars to die like Rich. They dont know how to enjoy life, the younger period. They know
only taking property loans for 60 Lakhs, and live like beggars for 30 years with loan repayment, from 30 years of age till reach 60 years.
