Hi,
Thanks Karen!

I guess the thing I'm struggling with is finding a furnished apartment or a store that will give us credit with no history when we get there?

Can't believe this is happening-still in shock:D

Hi Karen,  i am originlly from Dublin, had lived in the UK for years. i moved to Florida last year where in Florida are you moving to?  It's  really difficult to get credit. I was lucky as I had an American Express card back home and was able to get one here without any problems so my credit is a bit better now. Car insurance is really really expensive, for the first 6months my husband paid around $1500 and for this 6 months its reduced to around $1000.  I am not trying to scare you I love it here and it has its + points and its - points. If there is anything you would like to know please ask. Even about shipping everything over. We also had no problem renting an apartment. It was a bit of a nightmare just with the paperwork. I had to send them my pay slips and proof of savings/employment.  I am happy to help seeing as I an still a newbie in he US.
