Aloha Everyone

Hello everyone, I joined this forum in hopes of possibly finding some information here to help me make a move and find work in Scotland.

I'm a yank, been living in Hawaii for the past 16 years, and I'm a Computer Geek that would love to live and work in Edinburgh...

ALOHA

Hello
As Kathy suggested, have a look at the moving forum, there is lots of helpful info in there.

Unfortunately, unless you have close (ie no further back than a grandparent) ancestral ties, or have skills we seek (eg teaching, medical skills, certain engineering skills) or are a citizen of another EU country, then your chances of being allowed to work in the UK are slight, at best.

Have a look at the Home Office site re visas - that may clarify some of your questions. Border & Immigration Agency | Border and Immigration Agency

Good luck with your attempt to move to Scotland!
