US-based Ghanaian social media personality Naana Donkor Arthur has advised Ghanaians in their forties to reconsider plans to relocate to the US.
Speaking with Sammy Kay Media, she outlined the challenges older individuals face when settling in America.
NDA, who moved to the US at 19 after winning the American lottery, said immigration has become more challenging over the years.
She explained that acquiring legal documentation is now costly and stressful, requiring an estimated $35,000, which does not guarantee success. She said middle-aged individuals earning that amount through physically demanding jobs could take years and leave them weak.
She added that single people have a better chance of securing documentation since they can marry in the US and adjust their status. She said that, however, married individuals relocating from Ghana would face more challenging and more expensive processes as they could not obtain documentation through marriage. NDA also mentioned that the US system was not favourable for those starting afresh at an advanced age.
She advised Ghanaians in their forties and beyond to explore other ways to achieve their financial goals instead of relocating. She said younger people were better suited for the challenges of living in the US, as they have more time and energy to build a future.
