3000 per month is a rough after tax estimate based on 44000 gross pay if you are going to live in illinois. I used this tool.

Based on my 25 years in USA, i concluded that no matter under what circumstances you come to USA (student, work visa, spouse visa, green card lottery …), your first 2/2.5 years are tough. You would need some adjustment time, whether its financial adjustment, social, relationships or something else. You will be going through that too, but if you are determined and a tough person, USA has this uniqueness to provide a person with unlimited opportunities to grow. This is the only country in the world, in my opinion, where you can enter as an illegal alien with $50.00 in your pocket, and can become a legal millionaire in 5 years. So I say, go for it. Your present will give you challenges, but your’s and your family’s future is better in USA than Dubai.

True…my dad started here the same way.

thanks for your reply. As of now, I do not know their decision. The HR has not approached me yet. I do not know where I stand at this point of time. Once they give me the offer letter we would be able to decide about housing and all. I didn’t understand you said school districts are expensive? Isn’t school free for the kids?

I meant cost of living is more expensive in better school districts.
