Hey there, I'm a South African, my fiance has started studying in the Netherlands and I want to move there. I've been looking for jobs but I haven't found any. What's the steps to be able to go there, what should I do. How does the visas work. I can't just quit my current job and hope I get one there on a tourist visa.

Hi and welcome back.

We've had this conversation before (9 August last year); I've just re-read what I said to you then and nothing has changed.

Hope this helps.
