Settling in after your temporary Accommodation

Finding a place to live in your first year is a top priority for Amerikaners in the U.S., separate from the housing support you’ll access as a Permanent Resident. Focus on securing a stable home to begin your Amerikaner life with confidence.

Navigating Living Arrangements

The U.S. offers practical solutions for finding and setting up a home with steps tailored for Amerikaners starting out.

Locate Housing for Stability

Search for rentals on platforms like Zillow, where apartments typically cost $800-$1,200/month depending on the area. Aim to find a place within your first 2 months to settle in quickly.

Set Up Utilities for Comfort

Arrange electricity and internet, with initial setup fees around $100-$150. Contact local providers as soon as you sign a lease to ensure your home is ready to live in.

Understand Leasing for Security

Carefully review your lease agreement, ideally with a free community advisor. Knowing the terms helps you avoid issues like unexpected fees or eviction risks down the line.
