Is it a mistake to move to UK?
We have accepted a job in Bath, we are now waiting for the work permit and then we will get the visa. A very long expensive and complex process compared to our job in germany.
This is the offer we have accepted
OFFER A
Salary: £28,000
Relocation: £2,500
Benefits following completion of 12 week probation period:
- 21 days holiday a year (+ bank holidays)
- private health insurance
- life assurance
- company pension scheme
- productivity bonuses (currently £500 quarterly)
- profit share scheme
But now I am getting nervous. This is more thann we earn in germany, but the percentage of income to live in Germany seems to be much lower.
we are a family of my husband myself and our 10 month old. We need to send 750 pound a month to aust to cover our bills there. So we are left with about 1000 a month (after tax) to pay rent/bills.
Now its not all about money. I mean being an expat is the experience first al foremost for us. But are we going to manage. Should we even be going to the UK?
