Okay, but jobs don’t want to hire you if you don’t live there, and apartments want proof of income. That feels like a catch-22.
Also, just not sure about how much to save up. I’m guessing I’ll need at least $1000 for the Uhaul, but otherwise I’m just trying to save as much as I can. (Working four jobs atm)
There’s also a bunch of auxiliary paperwork things - getting a new drivers license, transferring car title? I don’t know. I’ve been jumping through hoops to get my certifications and work licenses transferred.
It’s overwhelming and I struggle with paperwork and planning these kinds of things at the best of times. I’ve reached out to those types of trans help orgs a few times to see if someone could just sit with me and walk through the finances. Give me a checklist.
