When moving overseas, you might want to get in the habit of keeping a notebook with you at all times.
There will be a lot you need to plan for, so it is good to keep a running list of things you need to get done.
IntlMOVE wants to make your move as easy as possible, so we have put together a list to get you started.

A move consultant from IntlMOVE will help you plan for your move overseas. IntlMOVE will pack your belongings, ship your household goods overseas and deliver your international shipment to your new house in your new country.
• Job Search for Spouse – If you have a spouse moving overseas with you, determine whether or not your spouse will need to work. Some countries have strict laws about foreign workers, so you spouse may be ineligible to find employment. If your spouse is able to work, start networking through employment websites, expat websites and personal connections to get a jumpstart on the job searching process.
• Searching for Schools – If you have children, you will want to research the schools in the area. If you are getting a relocation package, determine if children’s schooling is included in your benefits. Ask other expats on expat forums for help with finding a new school. The internet can provide a wealth of information. Once you have narrowed down your choices, contact the schools with a list of questions to determine what educational institution is right for your kids.
• Transportation – You might need to ship your car overseas, or your new country might have public transportation that will work for your needs. IntlMOVE can provide the service of shipping your car overseas if this is something you need.
• Housing – Research housing in your new country while taking several things into consideration. You will want to research the different neighborhoods, crime rates, location in relation to schools and jobs, public transportation and convenience.
• Forward Mail – Look into international mail forwarding services, so you can make sure that you get all of your important documents and mail after your international relocation.
• Arrange for International Banking – Research all of your options for international banking. Contact your local bank to see what you need to do to change your location. You can also look into international banks or set up a bank account in your new country. You will have to research all of your options and choose what is right for you.
• Credit Cards – Contact your credit card companies and make them aware of your new location. You may need to apply for new credit cards that will work overseas.
• Cancel all Services – Cancel your utilities, cable, internet, gym memberships and any other services you will no longer need.
• Alert Friends and Family – Let your friends and family know your new address and location so they can contact you. Your United States phone number will no longer work, so make sure your family and friends have your email address, Skype username and new address so they can reach you. Once you get a new phone number, you can send out an announcement that includes all of your new contact information.
• Minimizing – You will want to minimize as much as possible before moving overseas. Arrange to sell or donate your unwanted items. Get rid of clothes your family no longer wears, furniture that will not fit into your new home and any other items that you don’t need.

I moved overseas with my husband last year with IntlMOVE. I was planning on working, but found that we could live a very comfortable lifestyle in India without a second income. If you are moving to India, planning ahead will help ease a lot of worries
