Getting My MM2H Visa
April 27th 2011 14:06
I gathered all the information I needed to complete my MM2H Visa and sent it to an agent I contracted with to complete the application. After a couple of months I was approved. I had to go to Kuala Lumpur to pick up my visa and open a
Fixed Deposit (Certificate of Deposit), which was necessary to insure I could afford to live there. I made arrangements and picked up my visa in April of 2007. The hard part came next. I had to sell my house in a very depressed housing market. I put my house on the market in October, but didn't sell it until May. Once I sold it I made arrangements to retire, set up my pension, purchase an annuity and plan my move. Once I closed on the sale of the house I transferred most of the money to Malaysia to buy another house and car. One week later i flew to Penang to start a new life in retirement. The whole procedure was extremely stressfull, especialy selling the house. The next most stressfull part of relocating abroad was dealing with the US banking system. Unless you have millions the banks don't want anything to do with you, living overseas. That story will be in another post.
