Passive Aggressiveness aside, I would give myself 2 years to get on my feet after I get a work permit/green card. The first year would be to transition from what I do now since I can't just spit in the face of those who helped me and the other year would be to get settled in to the industry. I have many friends who can help me get my foot in the door and I have a lot of unique skills but the reality is, I will be starting at the bottom in my 40's by the time I get any sort of work permit.
