Help me on moving to Jordan? Need some information, thank you!

13 years ago

Hello. My name is Jihad Rousan and I am planning on moving to jordan this month or next month at the very latest. I visited for the first time one year ago and since have decided to move there permanently.

My father was born in Jordan so he's a citizen and is a Jordanian from Jordan.. not palestinian. I was born in the usa but want to go there and also get my citizenship in Jordan.

But I have many concerns that I hope people on this forum can help me with. And maybe we can become friends in the process as well!

My first concern is about bringing a car to jordan with me. I want to bring a 1999-2003 (I'm not sure of the year yet) 6 cylinder Jeep Grand Cherokee with me to own. I have heard many rumors about laws in Jordan about cars. So I want to know, can I bring this car to Jordan to own permanently? Any other details would help a lot!

Also, I have completed high school, but did not complete college. One of my biggest worries is about finding a job there. I would be interested in working with an embassy. Or if not, then something I would love to do is get a job teaching english, however I would do almost any work. Here the the US I have managed and ran many pizza restaurants.

So about that - would it be easy for myself to find a job? And also what could I expect for an average monthly income for some of these possible jobs?

If anyone can help me here with these questions it would be SO MUCH appreciated as these things are driving me crazy!!

And if you'd like to help me more or would just like to get to know me my msn is [email protected]!

:) thanks and hope to hear replies soon!
