Sorry for pestering you about Holland but it's the only example I know first hand. In Holland your visa is tied to the employer (though its way easier to switch employers, unlike moving visas in the U.S which for some reason is a nasty process). After 5 years in the country you are eligible to take the citizenship tests (which consist of language test of about B level as far as I know and not too hard general knowledge about Netherlands). This is definitely more relaxed then the U.S , no ?

Yes, it is WAY more relaxed from the way you are describing. Is there any way to contact you, if that is okay with you?

Ya go for it, there are a ton of places you can start the process and I think you will find some parts of Europe have really improved the process (gathered from friends who have done it in Germany and the Netherlands).

65-75k Euro, 75 is very high but attainable. For someone from the U.S this should be very low.
