Thanks for all your comments. Here is what i have got 1. Might not matter, should auto-correct itself in a year or so. 2. Still not sure about my expectations wrt asking for 130K-150K ? I don't want to miss the boat while i do not want to get in at a low, since getting rises is really hard nowadays. 3. Thanks for all the wonderful information about neighboring places. Wow, I have a lot of options and not just NJ. 4. if 130K-150K works out, then i should be fine with the after tax savings. Whew!! 5. Might have to do some long hours in the beginning, might tail off as i get more exposure. 6. Will follow up with my company's lawyers.

Also, I remember reading a blog about a person's experience while moving to USA. He mentioned about SSN, DMV license, Moving his savings to USA, Credit ratings, etc. Can someone point me to the url again or send me appropriate urls where this information has been already mentioned.
