Hi everyone...sorry if this has been done to death, but I have done various searches and can't find what I need.

After a lengthy process, my visa is now in hand and I am preparing my departure....thing is, I am kind of floundering around as I have no idea how to go about it.

Who do I have to notify I am leaving the country, do I close my bank account, transfer it or keep it...there is so much to think about and I have no idea where to start.

Is there anyone who can spin me around and point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance :)

Things I did before I left:

- Kept bank account open as I needed to pay off an overdraft and also good to transferring money.

- Gave books, clothes, and possessions that I didn't want to charity.

- Cashed in deposit from apartment ( do not forget this, it's extra money!).

- Closed accounts with TV license, phone, internet.

- Notified electrical/gas company that I was moving.

- Notified Student Loans when I received my green card along with evidence that I'm unemployed and my husband is supporting me. I haven't heard back from them yet, so I probably need to contact them to find out the deal. I would advise doing this before you leave if you have student loans.

My advice?

Don't tell anyone, then see if they can find you once you get here (it's a big place, after all). This especially applies to annoying relatives, those friends you thought you'd misplaced (on purpose) years ago and anyone representing Reader's Digest.

Don't interrupt me when I'm talking to myself

Sounds suspiciously like my plan :whistle:
