Great Video!!! I moved into the UK from Sri Lanka under the Highly Skilled Migration Program in 2008 so, based on my experience I can say that most of the points mentioned in this video are absolutely bang on... Came here without any job offer/sponsor, found a job based on my degree and work experience and also managed to complete my MBA at Warwick University studying part-time while working full-time. Now happily raising a family of 3 kids 😍😍😍. There is no such place called "the perfect country" but, the UK is as good as it can get!
I have been in the USA for 6 months and I have a dependent visa. The process to be able to work here is at least 2 and a half years, but due to the lottery system, it can be longer. I feel very depressed about having to wait and I don't feel safe living here. Before, I lived in Mexico and surprisingly, I feel similar about the security there. I am evaluating other options for emigrating and the UK is winning in my options. Thank you.
As an American living in USA I understand that your side . I have my own reasons for USA . I am Mexican . My home is near , cheaper housing in USA than UK, cheaper land , USA tax is lower in some states , but compare to Europe like USA, houses are cheaper, cars are cheaper .
USA is not cheaper for housing anymore, I moved to the uk from Singapore, but I’m from the USA, California and housing is far more expensive there than Surrey where I now live in the uk. Tax in the USA is almost the same as here but you have to pay for your healthcare there. I actually save far more money in the uk than I ever did in the usa.
I'm British born live in the UK now. I went to university in the US and lived there 8 years. I can say this. USA is an amazing country filled with opportunities if you organize well in advance and have the right immigration status. As a dependent you have options to be enrolled as a student and the you have rights to work and graduate towards permanent residency and citizenship. The UK is closer to Africa and India yes. Immigration is easier yes. The pound is stronger yes but salaries are less than half those of tne US workers in similar job categories. The cost of living in UK is very high, the quality and availability of healthcare is lower overall in the UK now with nurses doctors on strike often. The free NHS is in shambles with appointments backlog for years. Many have gotten worse and died before seeing an NHS doctor. As for directness yes US people are direct and open. The UK culture is polite and outwardly softer but they practice covert racism and discrimination and usually do not say what's on their minds openly. USA houses are bigger and the climate more variable. The only part I agree with you is security as the gun culture is scary and out of control there. Still the US is a great country with many more opportunities than the UK.
Sarika and people who are vouching for U.K are oriented to U.K. Whole world knows United States is by far the Greatest country. However, they have issues too. Terrible is Gun violence
@@krishnasa8916 BS , I was born in the UK and married an American woman and lived in the US for 7 years , there are no backlogs of years for NHS treatment , I get treated very quickly when ever I need it , as for opportunities , all i ever saw in the US was people struggling and having to work 2 and 3 jobs just to put food on the table. US by far the greatest country ? Dream on , if that was true I would have stayed there but I came back to the UK ...
@@krishnasa8916 good for you I run a cleaning business in Wales and many of my British born n bred clients cannot get NHS appointments on time but their dogs and cats have no issues. In fact the running joke with one elderly client is they should perhaps ask the vet to see them after seeing their pet! Please don't pretend that the NHS runs smoothly and there is no waiting list. Unless you live in an isolated small town it's a fact that sone Cancer patients even get worse abd die while waiting months for appointments;
I can totally relate to this 12 points personally. I moved to the UK 2015, by quitting US option same as you. And i can happily say it was the best decision ever to choose UK over US for sure.😍❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Sarika for making this video🙏🏼 I love UK 🇬🇧 looking forward to be there in some day now I’m in New Zealand 🇳🇿🤝I feel the same benefits when it comes to UK. There is also one more reason which I had in my mind that You can travel so many countries from UK👍

Hello Sarika,thanks for all your educative videos. I love uk more tan every other places and I want my children to come and stay in the uk in the nearest future. My daughter is a medical student and my son a computer engineering student. God bless you Sirika,love you. From Ranti.
Great video 👍. Also, work culture in US much different and it’s comparatively harder to cope with for many people: 1. Caste system in work culture: you probably have heard of Manikhandan Ramasamy and Rajagopalan cases. It’s just horrible to think of a work environment with backdated caste based system 😔 2. Racism: racism is also prevailing in work culture as well as in society as a whole. 3. High work place politics: rarely any workplace where people can concentrate purely in work without hassles of team politics Apart from that, people moved to US after 2008 have no surety till when visa would be valid.
Also, with UK you can visit so many countries closeby in Europe. Healthcare is free in UK unlike USA. Maybe there were not the influencing factors for you at that time.
@@prajvalrao4871 True, but you pay for health care through your taxes, so it is not free. Nothing is free as taxes are taken to pay for things like education, health care and transportation. :)
I am not supposed to miss ur all videos mam as I said before really very very good information and inspiration to all like me whichever I am trying a new job in uk and European union in construction field jobs thank mam
1. Healthcare is not free, it is paid by taxes. 2. The USA is not structured like Europe and Asia. There are no small towns close to each other that can economically support mass transportation on a daily basis. Even in small towns or large suburbs, they cannot economically support mass transportation on a daily basis within these towns or suburbs. In big US cities, you do not need a car but that is not true for the rest of the country. 3. On guns, 99,99% of legal gun owners in the USA do not crime with guns. It is performed by criminals and mentally disturbed people who obtained guns illegally. The UK has an increased illegal gun ownership.
Hi SARIKA. Your 12 points are so important. If we think about deeply we can refer UK is a best option for settlement and for job or work as we want. Good video for knowledge and understanding. Thank you
Hello ma'am, greetings from India. It would be great if you please make a comparative video about the same between Uk and other major EU countries like Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, Denmark, etc.
In my opinion, Sweden Denmark and Switzerland is better for standard of living whereas Germany is richer but the people have a less standard of living (not by far) . Ireland is really similar to the UK (as much as we would both deny it) but the cost of living in Ireland is 20% more expensive when the average Irish person earns pretty much the exact same, give or take £500 a year.
funny comparision, USA has more jobs than UK ....No comparision in that , most of the big companies, google, facbook, microsoft ,INTEL, GE etc. are based out of US. most of the fortune 500 companies are based out of usa & how many from UK??
but California is way more expensive than most places in UK. If you live in London you earn 150-250k pounds. I have a friend who got that salary from a MNC in London. If you got to a small city in US they would pay you according to the living index in the area which is about 80-90k USD.
@@theunderdog690 nope...thats not the case...all major pharma & manufacturing industries are in small cities and they are paying much more than the london rate....California & NYC being highest paying of course.. Many people working in NYC doesn't necessarily have to live in NYC...many live in NJ & commute to NYC ...as for california...you don't necessarily have to live in San Francisco...sillicon valley ...many employees live in suburbs 1 to 1 & 1/2 hrs away... Prevailing wages for high tech jobs in many small induatrial & pharma towns pay much more higher than your london rate...
great video..nice to know some of the facts that were new or unheard off. what do you think about the pay difference for a data analyst in uk and usa starting from fresher to experienced?
Proximity to india Gun violence Work culture in uk Visas are issued in 3 week Public transport in uk Dependent can work Settlement options British pound stronger Same type of driving like india Eurpoe Higher studies cost Medical facilities

Most extremists are refugees in the U.K. and Europe, generally speaking. They call it " Londonstan." In the United States, you can buy branded clothes from Macy's at affordable prices, but if you go to Harrods London, look at the price tag and go away. London, for me, is an excellent place to visit as a tourist; that is it. Suppose you want to live and earn a decent salary without too much competition. Turn to go to the U.S. or at least Germany. Nobody wants to live in that crowded place.
@@YourKnowledgeBuddy Hello Sarika , Now I am in UK and I need some of your suggestions regardings my future deciding factors So please I want to get in touch with you , how can I do that ??
Thank you for sharing your inputs. It was helpful. Kind request to make an video on healthcare & more on Mammographers job. There is a huge demand in UK.
Good informative video, thank you for sharing your views on both countries. I have worked in USA for 6 years and now in UK from past 2 years, and coming from USA to UK was a big change some are for good some not so much.. Immigration definitely is a big point and proximity to India a double yes... Though, I think its unfair to present a view which favors UK only, while pound has a higher value than dollar though the earning package for same role is much higher in USA than here in UK, then taxes here in UK being over 40% compared to 20-25% in USA so you save better, for medical yes its free here though to get a GP appointment takes a week and for most of diagnosis the medication is paracetamol, the wait for getting medical attention is crazy compared to USA even after paying high medical insurance the facilities are world class. UK economy is crumbling, dollar almost was equal to the pound, and after Brexit things have gone bad to worse. Best transport system - yes though you have to stay within walking distance of a station, and finding home near to that proximity is a nightmare, the houses looks and feels like Dungens, in that same money (where dollar is less in value ill get a home thats a size of 3 homes here in UK) and even with few things you compromise there is bidding wars for the house for rent not even buying for RENTING!!!! overlooking all that, even if you reach to the station though then you have to keep a tab on rail and bus strikes the distance of 30 mins may very well take over 90 just because you have to change multiple busses... whats the point of best connectivity system which is not working half of the time. all the above has been my personal experiences. Its unfair to paint a rosy picture for everyone without telling the day to day struggles and issues, people leave everything and come here to live the dream only to realize the harsh reality in a hard way.
UK is my dream destination...🥺 I'm 2021 passed out MBA graduate in search of job in India... Is there any opportunity now to immigrate on any basis..😔 I'm applying for all the possible opportunity.. but...i don't see anything turning up😭
A couple of points to note - we, here in the UK drive on the LEFT, not on the RIGHT - however the steering wheel is on the RIGHT, so not sure if that's what you meant? Secondly, the healthcare system (the NHS) is NOT FREE. Anyone employed and earns above the lower threshold pays a tax called National Insurance which is charged at 12% of your salary. This is in addition the normal tax rates you pay from your salary (either 20% lower rate tax or 40-45% higher rate tax). Therefore if you earn over this lower threshold - you pay a minimum of 32% tax in total (National insurance and income tax) - higher if you are earning over £50k per year The NHS is free from the point of use, meaning that you do not receive a bill when you visit the doctor's or a hospital. Please be careful as this kind of information is very misleading and incorrect.
Hello Ma’am , Hope you are doing well. I have been following your channel for past couple of months and some of the information has been really helpful. I will be coming to UK this September. Me and my friends had a few questions and didn’t know whom to ask. We will have to complete a 10 days quarantine in London and then move to Sheffield. We were looking for options to travel from London to Sheffield via Train/Coach. But we don’t know exactly which is better. Trains are a bit costly, coach(bus) is a cheap option, but, no clear information on how much luggage do they allow for one person. There are many service providers for coach/train like RailEurope,EMR, NationalExpress,FirstBus,etc, but if possible could you provide information regarding this? Like what is best option for students, costs, how much luggage is allowed, what precautions to take, what are ways to book? It will be really helpful.
Hey Devraj , thank u for your kind words. National rail coach or buses are always cheaper as compared to Tube(which is metro) or National train. So I would suggest to look at National Rail coach website & provide your location . They have lots of buses running throughout the day .
Much expected video Sarikha Mam. Not sure whether I will have my work in my dream country or not, wishing to make that happen soon. Your videos are pulling me faster even. Thanks for that.

Hi, One of your points is not Valid, As per my knowledge in the USA Visa Dependents, candidates can work full time if they have valid EAD(Employment Authorization Document) before Green Card Approval.
Hey thanks . Before PBS , they followed rules for Tier2 visa which was almost same . ( I hardly find any difference to be honest - the most imp thing is u need visa sponsorship from your employer ).

I emigrated from the USA to the UK back in ’98 and became a naturalised UK citizen in 2004. I only visit the USA every few years now. Each time I do, I see more businesses and houses boarded up and Americans looking shabbier and, of course, fatter. Americans like to think that they live in the best country in the world when in fact they live in one of the worst countries in the world: lousy healthcare system, low pay, virtually no employee benefits, etc.. American, love it or leave it! I left it!
Low pay, seriously!! How about job opportunities there in England? Regarding the American people. I see English people eating at McDonald's because they are slimmer and cannot afford expensive food in England. Unfortunately, they are slimmer in a lousy way because of the lack of choices

🙏🙏thank u for watching it.
Good informative video, thank you for sharing your views on both countries. I have worked in USA for 6 years and now in UK from past 2 years, and coming from USA to UK was a big change some are for good some not so much.. Immigration definitely is a big point and proximity to India a double yes...
Though, I think its unfair to present a view which favors UK only, while pound has a higher value than dollar though the earning package for same role is much higher in USA than here in UK, then taxes here in UK being over 40% compared to 20-25% in USA so you save better, for medical yes its free here though to get a GP appointment takes a week and for most of diagnosis the medication is paracetamol, the wait for getting medical attention is crazy compared to USA even after paying high medical insurance the facilities are world class. UK economy is crumbling, dollar almost was equal to the pound, and after Brexit things have gone bad to worse. Best transport system - yes though you have to stay within walking distance of a station, and finding home near to that proximity is a nightmare, the houses looks and feels like Dungens, in that same money (where dollar is less in value ill get a home thats a size of 3 homes here in UK) and even with few things you compromise there is bidding wars for the house for rent not even buying for RENTING!!!! overlooking all that, even if you reach to the station though then you have to keep a tab on rail and bus strikes the distance of 30 mins may very well take over 90 just because you have to change multiple busses... whats the point of best connectivity system which is not working half of the time. all the above has been my personal experiences.
Its unfair to paint a rosy picture for everyone without telling the day to day struggles and issues, people leave everything and come here to live the dream only to realize the harsh reality in a hard way.
UK is my dream destination...🥺 I'm 2021 passed out MBA graduate in search of job in India... Is there any opportunity now to immigrate on any basis..😔 I'm applying for all the possible opportunity.. but...i don't see anything turning up😭
Thank you for the informative video ma'am...it would be helpful if you could make a video on how to move to USA with a job offer
Thank you for making this kind of informative videos
A couple of points to note - we, here in the UK drive on the LEFT, not on the RIGHT - however the steering wheel is on the RIGHT, so not sure if that's what you meant?
Secondly, the healthcare system (the NHS) is NOT FREE.
Anyone employed and earns above the lower threshold pays a tax called National Insurance which is charged at 12% of your salary.
This is in addition the normal tax rates you pay from your salary (either 20% lower rate tax or 40-45% higher rate tax). Therefore if you earn over this lower threshold - you pay a minimum of 32% tax in total (National insurance and income tax) - higher if you are earning over £50k per year
The NHS is free from the point of use, meaning that you do not receive a bill when you visit the doctor's or a hospital.
Please be careful as this kind of information is very misleading and incorrect.
On the spot!
Very nice video as usual..👍
Thank u ab
Superb sarika..Some of those points matched my view... Can you please do compare btw Canada and Australia? Maybe useful for many.. Thanks😊
Thank u Mujib 🙏❤️. Yes sure will plan in the future.

Thank you so much for this great information....i made my decision to choose uk than usa
Welcome to the club & hope U.K. treats u ok .
I like the way you explaining the content and exposure and exploration UK ....sister you are amazing
Thank u for your kind words Vamshi❤️🙏
Hello Ma’am ,
Hope you are doing well.
I have been following your channel for past couple of months and some of the information has been really helpful.
I will be coming to UK this September. Me and my friends had a few questions and didn’t know whom to ask.
We will have to complete a 10 days quarantine in London and then move to Sheffield.
We were looking for options to travel from London to Sheffield via Train/Coach. But we don’t know exactly which is better. Trains are a bit costly, coach(bus) is a cheap option, but, no clear information on how much luggage do they allow for one person.
There are many service providers for coach/train like RailEurope,EMR, NationalExpress,FirstBus,etc,
but if possible could you provide information regarding this? Like what is best option for students, costs, how much luggage is allowed, what precautions to take, what are ways to book? It will be really helpful.
Hey Devraj , thank u for your kind words.
National rail coach or buses are always cheaper as compared to Tube(which is metro) or National train.
So I would suggest to look at National Rail coach website & provide your location . They have lots of buses running throughout the day .
Wow thanks ❤🌹🙏❤
Looking forward to this ❤️
Thank you Imitiaz. Hope you enjoyed the video.
Very helpful thank you sister.
Much expected video Sarikha Mam. Not sure whether I will have my work in my dream country or not, wishing to make that happen soon. Your videos are pulling me faster even. Thanks for that.
You are really kind Abirami. Thank u for watching my videos🙏
I am curious if you were ever introduced or suggested to the canadian alternative. If yes i would love to hear your reasons why uk over Canada.. 😊😊...
Hahaha Derek actually no . But I will find some facts & do the comparison someday soon ….
Thank you so much 😀
Hands down - if you are Indian, the UK is the best place to be (followed by Canada)
Hi sarika, is there any scope in the car rental industry in the UK for indian nationals. if i apply from india will they provide me visa
Hey 👋

Madam how long can it take for uk to part citizenship from India? can we start our own business on work visa ?
Sister, each and every video gives more information...keep rocking
❤️❤️🙏 thank u Anand
Hi,
One of your points is not Valid, As per my knowledge in the USA Visa Dependents, candidates can work full time if they have valid EAD(Employment Authorization Document) before Green Card Approval.
Hey Sarika, if you don't mind.. May I ask you, that how many years did you work in cognizant India before moving to UK ?
Hey I moved to the U.K. via cognizant . So roughly 6 years
@@YourKnowledgeBuddy Thank you so much Sarika. This information is so helpful. Thanks a lot.
Agree with all points. Great video 👍but PBS came just 1 year ago right...you are in uk since 10 years
Hey thanks . Before PBS , they followed rules for Tier2 visa which was almost same . ( I hardly find any difference to be honest - the most imp thing is u need visa sponsorship from your employer ).
@@YourKnowledgeBuddy Thanks. I am trying to get skilled worker visa in my office, but they are hesitant 😀they want to process ICT...fearing people will change job if employees go on skilled worker visa/PBS.
Everyone faces same problem . What is your exact role ?

Hello ma'am.. Can you please make an updated video on this topic? Considering the inflation, increase in visa charges, health surcharges etc. In 2023, is it worth to come from India and work there with a family? The inflation and recession news is really confusing, scary. Please share Your views and opinion in this matter 🙏

Hi, How would you rate MEM from KCL for an IT graduate from India(22 months workexp). I have an admit from penn state USA as well, but the ELIM course there is relatively new.
Two of your choices are applicable to me: Love for Europe and Gun Law.

Hi Sarika, can you please give us some information about the PLAB exam that the medical graduates need to give to get jobs in hospital UK
Hi, i am not an expert in this & hence will need to interview someone.
@@YourKnowledgeBuddy yes I understand but I saw a lot of videos dedicated to medical professionals on your channel and all has been a great help. It’ll be pleasure if you get someone for PLAB too. Nevertheless huge respect for you for being so kind ans informative.
Has your opinion changed since the UK left the European Union? Seems the economy is suffering since Brexit happened and obviously travelling across Europe is no longer so easy.
Thank you for informations.

Helpful ❣
Mam can you please make similar video for Canada vs U.K 🙏

UK does not have CITIZEN-BASED TAXATION like US which makes BRITISH CITIZENSHIP superior compared to US CITIZENSHIP!
Thanks so much on all the updates madam. My husband wants to know if can make a video on Broadcast engineering visa sponsorship jobs in the UK, that's media jobs because he's a Broadcast engineer. Please ma we will like to see such video. Thanks and Keep up with the good work ma
I always dream of UK but in not getting 😕 any spouse from uk
I emigrated from the USA to the UK back in ’98 and became a naturalised UK citizen in 2004. I only visit the USA every few years now. Each time I do, I see more businesses and houses boarded up and Americans looking shabbier and, of course, fatter. Americans like to think that they live in the best country in the world when in fact they live in one of the worst countries in the world: lousy healthcare system, low pay, virtually no employee benefits, etc.. American, love it or leave it! I left it!
Low pay, seriously!! How about job opportunities there in England? Regarding the American people. I see English people eating at McDonald's because they are slimmer and cannot afford expensive food in England. Unfortunately, they are slimmer in a lousy way because of the lack of choices
I'm addicted to your videos❤️
U made me smile Deepa. Thank u for having your trust in me.
This video inspired me to move UK rather than USA
I’m glad to know that . Welcome 🙏
I am planning for a master's in the UK in artificial intelligence.
I am a 7+ year experienced AI software developer.
Can I get a job at the senior level (CTC should not equal to the fresher) as I have 7+ years of experience?
or I must join as a fresher after master's.
Please guide me on this.
