Yes. It's not a tv or a vcr that can only play either pal or ntsc. Your ipod will be fine.

Why wouldn't it work? Does Apple make different Ipods for each individual country? Is your computer some kind of offshoot that doesn't have the standard USB ports? Yes, it will work.

Lol this is funniest post I have seen all day. That would be a good question if it were true though. Alot of stuff only works in certain countries oddly enough.

Will my Vixia HG20 work in England
Will my Vixia HG20 work in England?
Hey guys, I was just wondering if I could charge my new camcorder (bought in America) in England. I know the voltage is different there, and that the camcorder comes with an adaptor to charging. Problem is, my supposedly tech-savy uncle tells me that I need to buy an addition battery charger so that I will get to right voltage. Anyone know? Thanks!

Check the HG20 charger you have... Multi-voltage. Says so on the charger and in the camcorder's instruction manual. All you need is the adapter prong things. Use the same charger, but the adapter turns the "blades" that plug into US AC outlets into the prongs the UK outlets ("mains") use. I got an AC adapter travel kit last year and did not use the AC converter fo my camcorder battery recharge - just the adapter prongs.

There is no green card, there are several different types of work visa * your company in your home country transfers you to their UK office on the Tier 2 Intercompany Transfer visa * you have at least a Masters degree and apply on your own for a Tier 1 visa (does not require company sponsorship) * you find a British company willing to sponsor you. They first have to advertise the position for 6 weeks and show that no qualified EU citizen applied, then apply for a Sponsors License through the Home Office, then sponsor you for a Tier 2 General visa

Not now. I'm in Scotland (same immigration laws) and my girlfriend is from the US. There are very specific guidelines now so you need to be pretty highly qualified first. Otherwise it might be easier to try and get a Student Visa and move up to a work one, or look at working holidaymaker visa.
2 :
It can be done. Technically speaking - unless you're married to a Brit - you need to be offered a job in the UK and the company offering you the job need to be willing to make a case for employing a foreigner rather than a local person (easy if you're a professional, very difficult if you want to do a job that anybody could do). The American ExPats forum (linked below) has a wealth of information on getting a visa and emigrating to the UK. There's also a great article on the Transitions Abroad website (also linked, below) that's well worth reading.
3 :
It isn't very easy because citizens from the EEA (European Economic Area) take precedence over any jobs going, but it can be done. All the criteria for working here can be found at this government site. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/ The Working Holidaymaker visa which has been mentioned in another answer no longer exists. It was replaced late last year by the Youth Mobility Scheme, and Americans are not eligible for it... http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier5/
4 :
It depends on your age, work experience, education and income. If you have at least a BA, are making about $70K/year, and have proof that you have enough money to support yourself for several months, you can apply as a Highly Skilled Migrant under the Tier 1 program. This visa does not require you to be sponsored by a company, and you cannot receive public funds in case you are laid off by a company.

I was offered a job in england and my employer wants me to contribute for the processing of my working permit. Should I send money or they should shoulder the processing and the expenses?

That is one of the most common scams of all. Intending workers must apply for their own work permit - the employer doesn't get it for you so you should never need to send money to any third party. See if the following rings any alarms: http://www.419scam.org/nigeria-job-scams.htm EDIT: Anyone can post a job on that site and 'jobs' and 'employers' are not vetted. It still sounds like a scam - the only difference is that you contacted them instead of them sending you an unsolicited email. Do NOT send money or provide personal details. Do a Google search on the company name and the name of any person mentioned in the correspondence as the scammers often use the same details. If nothing turns up on your search, it doesn't mean anything - they may not have scammed using those details before. If something does turn up, then you'll know for sure that it's a scam. The UK has very high unemployment and it is virtually unheard of for anyone from overseas to be given a job without a personal interview. Why would anyone be giving a scarce job to someone they've never met? SCAM!

Its a common scam, the employer has to pay all the fees in the UK as part of their sponsorship. The fees you will have pay is when you personally go to the British High Commission to get the visa s in your passport, you dont give money to anybody else or before you go to the High Commission. Call the High Commission to confirm if you want more proof. Did you even meet this company offering you the job??? If not of course its a scam, nobody is going to hire a person from abroad theyve never even met especially when there are 3 million unemployed people in the UK who have to be offered the job first

I would suggest u get in touch with several outlets that has to do with journalism of course, newspapers and tvs before u make the move, maybe ur college can refer u to some. as for living here, its very busy, lots of traffic and rains most of the time :)... but it is do-able.
2 :
Are you American? If so, I hate to burst your bubble, but work permits are hard to come by, especially in a field such as journalism - there are plenty of journalists/writers in Britain, so they dont need to "import" others. Basically, for an employer to give a work permit to a foreigner, they need to pay a hefty fee on your behalf and have some reason why you can do the job better than anyone in all of the EU. The other option for living and working in the UK is something called the highly skilled migrants program which awards points for various things such as age, education and earning power. If you have enough points, you can emmigrate without a work permit and search for work. (if you go over on your visitors visa, you are not allowed to look for work). You would get a certain amount of points for being under 28 years of age and for having a degree, but being fresh out of college, your earning potential would be fairly low and that will probably keep you from qualifying for that program.

I would suggest u get in touch with several outlets that has to do with journalism of course, newspapers and tvs before u make the move, maybe ur college can refer u to some. as for living here, its very busy, lots of traffic and rains most of the time :)... but it is do-able.

Are you American? If so, I hate to burst your bubble, but work permits are hard to come by, especially in a field such as journalism - there are plenty of journalists/writers in Britain, so they dont need to "import" others. Basically, for an employer to give a work permit to a foreigner, they need to pay a hefty fee on your behalf and have some reason why you can do the job better than anyone in all of the EU. The other option for living and working in the UK is something called the highly skilled migrants program which awards points for various things such as age, education and earning power. If you have enough points, you can emmigrate without a work permit and search for work. (if you go over on your visitors visa, you are not allowed to look for work). You would get a certain amount of points for being under 28 years of age and for having a degree, but being fresh out of college, your earning potential would be fairly low and that will probably keep you from qualifying for that program.

I'm American, wife is British, we live in America and want to live and work in England, which Visa do I need
I'm American, wife is British, we live in America and want to live and work in England, which Visa do I need?
As an American, should I send my wife over to get settled then apply for a spouse visa? Should I line up a job first and have my potential employer apply for a work visa? I am at my wit's end. The UK home office site does not address these issues very well. I'm lost in knowing which way to choose. There has to be mixed nationality couples from America and England that have gone through this process before...please help!

If you don't already have a place to stay in the UK - your wife might need to over there and arrange all that first. She will then need to help you apply for a Visa. You will need to be able to show that you can live there without any help from public funds. So she may need to find a job that can support you both before you apply. You can find more information about it here - http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf4husbandswifespartners http://www.britainusa.com/visas/articles_show_nt1.asp?i=65035&L1=41000&a=41033 :-)

A spouse visa is your best bet as transatlantic job hunting isn't generally successful. Your wife will need to show she has a place for you to live and a job to support you. If she goes over first, rents a small place and takes the first job she can get that should be plenty. The spousal visa process is pretty fast so you two needn't be apart for long. One couple I know did it without the wife leaving as a family friend gave then a lease on a property she owned and a relative wrote to them both with job offers. A week after getting there they had the spousal visa in hand. When they got to the UK they had to stay with family until they found a real place to stay and they both got real job offers.

How does hotel rooms work in the England?
How many beds is there in a standard double room in an England? Is it just 1 double bed? What kind of room would have 2 double (big) beds? Can someone list bed size in order? Largest to smallest.

Hi, Yes, in a standard double room there will just be one double bed. I don't know of any hotel rooms where there would be 2 double beds, you might have to just book 2 separate rooms, or maybe a family room if they have one, and push 2 single beds together if needed as a double. See my explanation of the room types available in England/UK. Hope this helps.... Single is one single bed. A very small room. Twin is two single beds. Probably smaller than average sized room Double is one double bed in a good sized room. King is a larger bed in a larger room. Also, a family room normally has a double bed and two singles, or double bed and bunk beds ( one on top of the other, normally for children ). Again, hope this helps.

A double room means a double bed. We can't understand why people would need two double beds in a room and this is very rare in England except for hotels that are part of American chains. A twin room has two single beds.

The microphone shouldn't be a problem but the mixer needs to be able to draw UK power instead of US power. For this you will need at least an adapter for the plug and you may need a power converter, depending on your mixer's requirements. It's hard to say without knowing what mixer you're talking about.
2 :
I agree with Dave. I believe they have 220-240 volts AC in the UK just like most other places, so if you have the same where you come from, you don't have to worry about a power converter. But if you already have a power supply for the mixer that plugs into 220-240 volts AC, be sure to bring that. Have a nice trip!

He needs to show he can bring something to the table, skills, education etc. A work permit holder needs to live in the UK for 5 years before being able to apply for permanent residency. To apply for citizenship, you need to have been a permanent resident for a year. More info at http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/

Yes and no. If you don't buy it "unlocked" then you'll only be able to use with your carrier contract in Dubai. In England it may work (if your Dubai carrier has a roaming partner in England), but you'll likely pay outrageous roaming fees for doing so. If you try to transfer it to a new carrier that is local to England then it probably won't work unless you can get it "unlocked", which may be costly.

Yes, the N75 will work in England. The phone is a quad band GSM and a dual-band UMTS model so it will not have any issues working in the UK, but it will likely not work on the UTMS network (meaning you will not get highs peed data access). The catch is that you must make sure that the phone you buy is not SIM locked to a particular carrier (AT&T, aka Cingular for this model). As for the phone itself, it is an excellent handset. If you don't care about a QWERTY keyboard it should have just about everything you need (nice camera, good music capabilities, great screen, etc...) I hope that answers your question.

If you don't care about a QWERTY keyboard it should have just about everything you need (nice camera, good music capabilities, great screen, etc...) I hope that answers your question.

Nokias are excellent phones. And yes they will work in england.

Will a Wii console bought in Australia work in England
Will a Wii console bought in Australia work in England?
I am sending a Wii Console and Wii Fit as a present, will this work in England if I have bought it in Australia

It will probably work in that it will turn on and could be used to play the copy of Wii Fit you also sent, but I doubt that any games bought in the UK will work on a AUS-based Wii, so in that respect, the short answer would be No. I don't know for certain, but I'm pretty sure that that games from bought in UK won't work on an Australian Wii. The Wii uses regional-lockouts to prevent imported games from working - for example, Japanese games will not be recognized by an American Wii. Without using a mod-chip, they will likely be locked out of games from the own region if they're using a Wii from another region (although using a mod-chip could brick their Wii if they download a system update that intentionally bricks modified Wiis - yes, Nintendo has the power to do this, and many laws in Japan, the US, and UK back up that power). Any new games will have to be from the Australian region, so they'll have to pay for shipping and other fees related to importing... not to mention that many games have staggered releases world-wide. Many games aren't released in Australia until many months have passed after being released in the US.
2 :
Absolutely, there's no reason for it not to. The only problem I see is the power outlet that connects to the wall. That varies from country to country. Let's say the U.S. and Mexico both use the same type of wall outlets, but in Europe, they use bigger wall outlets so you are either going to somehow get one. Find out what type of outlet does Europe and Australia use, if they are the same, then you don't have to do anything, if they are different, then you are left with no choice but to let the person receiving the wii to buy an outlet or tell someone to get it for that person. Other than that it should work just fine because all wiis are the same as far as technical specifications for the most part. There are some places like South Korea were the wii can't play Gamecube games but it still works in other countries. If they weren't the same then tehy wouldn'tbe wiis they would be something else...
3 :
Yes, it will but my only concern is the power connection. I'm not big on Geography knowledge, but I'm pretty sure England has different power connections and ports to Australia. If not, you can always get him to send it back and then you can refund it and give him the money and he may be able to change it for UK currency.

Definitely! Just be sure to tell your gift recievers that they will need a AC Adapter converter for the other region!

how many hours a day can you legally work in England in retail
how many hours a day can you legally work in England in retail?
London - 1 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
There is no set amount of hours per day that you can legally work. There is a maximum working week of 48 hours and this can be averaged over a number of weeks. For example: you may have 2 weeks @ 60 hours per week then a third week @ 24 hours over the week and this is perfectly legal. In saying that, there is a legal requirement to have at least an 11 hour break (rest period) between working days...so really, your working day can be no longer than 13 hours (inclusive of breaks).

Are American students legally able to work while studying abroad in England
Are American students legally able to work while studying abroad in England?
Are there any special paperwork and legal requirements for American students to be able to work in London, England while studying abroad there?

1 :
you would need to apply for a special Visa to work in the UK, theres loads of different types of Visa's, some only include studying, some include work and study. go to http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/ it should tell you how to apply
2 :
A Tier 4 student visa holder' permission to work will depend on the level of the course of study. If the course of study is below degree level, but not a foundation degree course, the student is allowed to work a maximum of 10 hours per week during term term with no restrictions during vacations. If the course of study is at degree level or above, or is a foundation degree course, the student is allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week during term term with no restrictions during vacations. At this level of study work placements are also allowed provided they are no longer than half the length of the course.

yes they will work fine.
2 :
I have purchased Japanese CDs and they work fine. Unlike DVDs that are formatted differently in different countries, CDs have a uniform format that doesn't vary by country. The only thing is that if you rip the album to your computer, all the information like the artist, album name, and song titles will be in Japanese. It takes a few minutes to type in the English translations, but other than that everything works fine.
3 :
Yes, CD works just fine, as i buy a lot of Japanese CD from many different Japanese website through https://www.japantodoor.com/Index.asp shopping service, if you find a Japanese site that do not ship internationally or take non japansese credit cards, give Japan to door a try! Hope this helps
