My girlfriend is American and she was going to move here but we want other options. What do I need to do to move there (America). How long can I stay, can I work, can I get a 1 way ticket?

I am currently in a similar situation, I want to go out to the states to be with my boyfriend, I have read and re read the Visa information for all different types of Visa, and it gives me a headache as there is so much information.
You can either get your girlfriend to apply for a fiancee visa for you when that goes through the USA system you will get called to the embassy in UK for interview - you have to prove lots of stuff though such as you have met in the last 2 years and show them emails and stuff. i think that is a K1 visa you then have to get married within 3 months of your entry to the States.
the other option as far as i can see is to try and get out on a H1 visa. you need to try and find a job that is willing to sponsor you etc and is not easy - i am finding that out now, there is a cap of about 65,000 H1 visas a year - someone correct me if i am wrong.
hope that helps a bit let me know how you get on as any info you can find may help me too.
Good luck - i know what its like!!

If you marry her, you won't become a citizen, but you can get a green card.
but you need to do it right, apply for permission and wait 3 to 6 months.
If you just decide to get married without permission so you can stay, they are going to watch you and bother you more than if you did it the proper way.

It all depends on what country you're from. If you can mention that, people will be able to help you more.
