Plumbing, Building fences, gates or houses, painting fence, house, exteriors or interiors, you can advertise privately on craigslist and get work to do, private work. I met once a group of Argentinian men (Argentina had no visa visiting US), 5- or 6 friends came to US, rented a small appt. together, rented tools, rented a car and started fixing houses making good money. In stores like Home Depot and Lowes there are all kind of tools to rent by day or hours, all kind of free learning how to do building things, Libraries in US are free and you can go there and read all kind of home improvement work, online youtube classes, wifi is free in Macdonalds and free computers use and wifi in public libraries. You want to work, you work. If you have other skills like teaching something or doing accounting, etc., you can do it too, just check the local craigslist and see what people is doing. Some guys are moving furniture or cutting trees and they need a helper, you get paid for it by hour. 2 Likes |

bsideboii:Fixing car as a private job is not easy here, it's all about car insurance and we all prefer to go to the dealer maintenance, you can get a job in dealer if you are legal or buy, fix quick and resell cars, not easy, car sales have lots of competition. Somebody mentioned the truck driver, it's a very good job but you need 2-3 years American drivers good record (American drivers license), then to study for CDL, some companies teach you for free with the condition you work for them 1-2 years. Truck driver's job is very well paid and always on demand. Starting maybe from $40-50K USD a year and going up to 80-100K USD a year in 1 year or 2. 1 Like |

OK |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by xandy84: 2:51am On May 30, 2019 |
First, you do not need 2-3 years of American driving to get a CDL. No truck driver make $80 to $100k in second year except you are owner operator and you have to minus gas, repair and truck payment. I am a diesel tech and own truck and this is what I do for a living. Truck driving looks easy but to make decent wages like $50k a year, you have to be away from your family for weeks and sleeping inside truck. Not for everybody for real.

Babyvet:you know the only chance we have to do that is through the dv lottery, but Nigeria is not eligible.we might have a chance if Congress approve the new merit based immigration plan |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by Babyvet: 4:09pm On May 30, 2019 |
hammed71: Nope dv lottery is not coming back for Nigerians it’s been gone for years now , Nigerians have met the quota. The merit based system is not going to work here . |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by Beautyaddy: 12:31am On May 31, 2019 |
Babyvet: hammed71: huh...The chances of that happening is little to none. However, the US DV lottery is not the only way Nigerians can migrate legally to the US and obtain instant legal papers. Family petitions are one of the easy ways for Nigerians to migrate legally to the US and by that means to instantly getting a green card on arrival. |

Beautyaddy: can you please explain this family petitions better. I get person over there and I am looking for a way to exit this yeye place |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by Babyvet: 7:09am On May 31, 2019 |
Beautyaddy: Family petition is not easy , depending on you category status , it takes years or decades for the immigrant Visa to become available |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by Babyvet: 7:13am On May 31, 2019 |
Beautyaddy: Family petition is done through a immediate family member like brother , sister , parents or children. They will ask for proof to show family relationship so you can’t use anybody . Family petitions can also take very long time. |

What about skills for UK ? |
Re: Skills To Acquire Before Relocating To The US. by Beautyaddy: 4:19pm On May 31, 2019 |
Babyvet: Not all of them. Immediate family petitions like spouses and minor children take at most 1-2 years. You left out spouses and fiancé/ fiancée...they are immediate families too. A lot of Nigerians are now using the spousal( immediate family) and fiancé/fiancée petitions to migrate legally to the US to obtain green cards. |

dude, you are talking complete BUNKUM!!!!. Don't tell me you ignored tony elumelu, cosmos maduka, Cletus ibeto. These guys were only given 20 pounds after the civil war. Today, they are billionaires. "Cosmos maduka" in particular left school at age 6. Today he is a CEO. How about Mike Adenuga (CEO globacom). Adenuga is a graduate of Oklahoma state university. If he had remained in America, he would have been somewhere, thinking about how to pay his mortgage. You are only picking on Dangote because that's the easy prey. But lemme ask you. Did Dangote not pay back the loan he took from his family? Did his family build his business for him? If you like, keep making excuses for yourself, that is your own cup of tea.This is 2021 and it has gotten worse! |
