Hope to be in a position to retire early and wife and I fancy living in the USA for a year , get a car there, travel and explore. Looking to rent a property for 1 year or 1x 6mths and 1x 6mths in different locations.

We would keep our house in the uk and not looking to emigrate.

We would have no issues with paying 12 mths rent in advance and have a sale of a business to self fund comfortably.


Any other tips/insights we need to think about/plan for.
formal docs etc.

A B-2 visa may be the one you need. Valid for 6 months and can be renewed for another 6 months.

My parents went for 9 months when they retired - I don't think they had any problems with Visas or anything like that. They swapped houses with some people they knew for the first 6 months, then did 3 months coast to coast in an RV.
thats the ticket - ill have two of those!

thank you for the replies and advice.

Its simply a long holiday ! We have family and property/home in the UK.


Would want to comply 100% with their rules - so perhaps the 90 days there and then 90 days UK and then 90 days there would also be fine. its to tour, relax and explore.

Its just to understand what is allowed and plan accordingly so appreciate all the replies.
