Mate! i have done uber eats, numerous times, i have their account, They need work permit, tax HMRC documents or passport or NI numbers. they need an Account number to pay your earnings into weekly, How would all that be possible without work permit/passport.

Thank God you have done this before and u are speaking from experience.... I hate it when people come to Nairaland to misinform others based on what someone else told them or just what they feel is the truth, thanks for educating him!!!!!

Which part is not true?
That Americans are more comfortable having Mexicans around working those jobs than Africans?cheesy
The problem is that Africans don't even have the skill set to do those jobs. As menial as they look.

It all depends on so many factors.

The city that he is in.
The connects that he has made
The kind of people he lived in when he first arrived.
Information that he is exposed to and so many other stuff.

As for renting an apartment, that is the hardest thing to do even if he has all the money in the world but dont have papers.
Ok

People still de travel go the US? If this guy was in Europe, he can never be homeless at the very least. In the developed world, america is the 3rd world of them all. From lack of public healthcare to lack of free education, homelessness and for-profit prison, mentally deranged population saddled with kilos of fats from junk food, racism, and inhumane capitalism, no person with the right frame of mind should migrate to America.

The US can only appeal to those from the 3rd world, since it's one step higher than their home country, and are a victim of the outdated ''American dream'' propaganda the US skilled media have sold repetitively to them. Its indeed, beyond shame that a country that purveys itself as the beacon of democracy and freedom, the richest on the planet controlling 1/4 of global wealth has all these problems. It's not an individual issue, it's the system.

A country that spent over half a trillion dollars bombing other countries instead of building them, expanding military instead of expanding its social safety net, exporting "democracy and freedom" instead of providing good infrastructures, healthcare and free educations". What a sad place to be.

Even more shameful that America as a country started as a social democracy (like the Scandinavia), but lost it along the way to the gripping hands of brutal capitalism. If less rich countries (e.g Slovakia) dont have this problem, how can you explain the US? If hell surely does exist, US is the headquarter.

How many US citizens born here with no drug problem, no criminal history, with high school or associates and willing to work earn decent wages? Before you argue, if you really live in America, go to your local work source and find out, na people like u dey make others resign their well paying jobs in Naija to become destitutes here and when they call u, u will block them on WhatsApp, and be laughing at their misfortune inside ur bedroom. The promise u just made right now, even Trump cannot promise US citizens that... guy, repent oooo
We are not talking about US born citizens, Are we? There are Thousands of US born whites/blacks/hispanic/Asians, who are Homeless, convicts, Junkies or Alchoholics.. But they are Allowed Benefits, Food stamps or wellfare money.


In the case of This guy, he may not be entitled to Any benefits.

This is Just a Sheer Personal sentimental Hatred for America, You have completely Digressed from the Topic to A Long Angry And Emotional Rant About America. Yes, America is Guilty of All that you have Accused it of, But that isn't the issue here.


And FYI there areThousands of Homeless People in Europe..

Homelessness Have been in Existence in America. since The Creation of America. it is not a Recent thing.

Just because America didn't work out fantastic for some people doesn't mean it didn't work out for Others.


America is still A land of Opportunities. If your head is Screwed in the Right place.

America is not a land where you want or expect everything for free. as per Fat doughnut, Mcdee Muching And Coca cola gulping individuals, They are in Every country, including Africa where they claim to be Starvations.

First of all, I am very sorry for the 11 willing souls who are so determined to get lost that liked the gabbage u posted here

As I read thru all u wrote, one thing kept screaming at me, u have never been to the US before and it is screaming to me from all u wrote

1. 90% of Nigerians do odd jobs? Who did the survey? How did you arrive at 90? Please provide a statistically varified link for all to see

2. So every professional job here for Naija is medical right? Where are the lawyers, engineers, teachers, professors, real estate pros?

3. assured of $5 per hour which is rare? How much does your African restaurant owners pay Naija people working for Per hour?

4. America is where all dreams come true, so the millions who are homeless in most cities don’t have dreams abi? Or all are lazy?

5. U never really been to US because u are calculating $5 * 360 to equate living standards here in naira. $5/ hr won’t rent a room 4 u

6. U convert dollars to naira to conclude A laborer here is better than a bank manager in Naija. $2,000 here is same as N50,000 in 9ja

7. Land of dreamers, bro, all the dreamers Obama gave temporary work permit who are now out of status, where is their dream today?

8. With $7.25 minimum wage, how can u see your financial life clearly after $600 goes to rent, utilities take $500, before feeding?

9. A man making N150k Monthly that money is equivalent of $6,000 per month here as per purchasing power, that na Oga salary here o

10. I take God beg una, do not let this man deceive u guys, if u come here and fail, shame no go let u return to Naija, u will get stuck


Just like millions of immigrants who got fooled by Hollywood, don’t listen to this guy who wrote nonesense here, be wise, a bird at hand is worth more than 1 million in the bush. America is indeed a dream, because the wealth u acquire in a dream Is lost once u wake up. Be wise!



Lol, I am sure you are one of those who failed in US, so it is no rocket science when you hear that some of your mates are making it big, so calm down let me educate you.

You are right, I have not been to US particularly, but will be there soonest...but I have been to European countries, China, South Korea, and many more to know what's obtainable cos they operate almost same economy.

I have more than 10 bosom, childhood friends living in US, most now citizens, some green card holders, and uncountable number of relatives all living in US, so its almost like I live in US because we talk virtually every hour, everyday....and I do a lot of businesses in US....so I know what's happening there more than you living there yeah.

My friends, relatives work as doctors, nurses, Software engineers, lawyers, insurance brokers, etc.....

How many Nigerians living in US are patient and smart enough to study software engineer, learn coding, programming to be able to land a profession job in that industry They are very small, very small in number. Lawyers we have a lot of Nigerians practicing there I forgot that.....but those are the major professional jobs Nigerians in US do....

All my relatives and friends living in the US are all doing well...some have stayed less than 5 years and are house owners in top Nigerian cities, driving their own good cars in US not on finance but fully paid off, some already own their own homes in US (done paying the mortgage), some own their own hospitals here in Nigeria...some have big thriving businesses back in Nigeria and are living really good life, so I don't why you want people to look at those Nigerians who failed in US as their mentor when there are thousands of those succeeding legally and living good life to look up to.

And I repeat, USA is a land of dreamers where anybody with dream, vision, skill and determination can achieve his or her dreams, and its far better than staying back in Nigeria if you are not earning big in Nigeria, stop deceiving people, I know your type, and wise people also know your type wink

No you have humiliated yourself , unless you are an American , a passport does not allow you to live in America . Passport and visas are two different things.
