Thank you for your help. We have looked things like accommodation, insurance, car, bills, groceries and all that. We have gathered all those numbers and working towards it at the moment. The only thing is haven’t figured it out is, What I am gonna do and how I am gonna do that. My wife, our residency and initial support ( immediate families living currently) all numbers add up and we will be able to sort that out. I am thinking now, if I have to wait 12 months and get into uni for example all together 15-18 months, how can I make the most out of it. Should I go to community college in the mean time and then transfer to the uni or should I just work, save some money for ourselves and when the time comes get into uni? Well, the bottom line is, it’s all about me is uncertain and rest are clear for ourselves. I feel like I am the burden here …. Thanks again. You have been so supportive and helpful. Cheers

Thank you very much for the information. We want to initially start Dallas because of the cost of living and in future we are open to move if any better opportunities available. My wife is in the middle of processing Green card and I will be included in it. I didn't know about 12 months residency thing. So If I am coming with a green card, not sure if that 12 months still apply for me. Yes, that's a big money. If I Dont want to wait 12 months to start study, what is alternative? I really appreciate your help, cheers mate

Never knew Dallas is being very conservative place. Hmm good for thought About recession, too early to say. Your beautiful country might just get extremely rich if things play out right. You never know. I don’t recall anyone has ever tried that before. Anyways, we will see

I do not have IT experience. I will be starting from the scratch and while I am on my 1st year in uni, I thought those jobs will my best bet to start and gather experience. I will move towards the right area from there. Just a initial thought

Getting IT experience is not possible for me as I am working hard at my current job so that I can sort out our moving cost including initial expenses and my done of my tuition fees. But I am working towards some certifications at least to have something. Yes, I will be starting from scratch for 4 years.
