KMS123: I'm in the same boat, but have a nice shortcut. However, I'm almost 29 and had to continuously put off moving to Europe because of the difficulties you're encountering now.
Before I found my free pass, I thought a lot about different options to get abroad, there seem to be only three.
- Marrying a citizenship in your country of choice. If you're still with that Irish guy, this is probably you're best bet. Once you have that marriage license, I think you can get a visa and start working right away. In the US, marrying a citizen usually goes for about $10,000, though you really shouldn't have to pay for it. Try and find a matchmaking service where a person wants US citizenship and you can marry them to get their European citizenship.
- Find a job that will sponsor your visa. This always seemed impossible to me. Best bet would be to work for an international company in Montana (probably a designer drug manufacturer for meth substitutes), spend a year there, and then tell them you have to transfer to Europe. Actually finding a job in Europe that will sponsor you is probably unlikely.
- Another improbably work option it if you happen to be in a field that is highly prized. Usually countries have lists of workers that they will give visas to, which makes finding work a whole lot easier. Since you're 19, you might be out-of-luck on this one.
- Find a country to give you citizenship. If one of your not to distant relatives is from Europe, you usually only have to show proper familiarity with the culture, speak the language, and prove your heritage with documentation to get yourself citizenship. (This is how I'm doing it, by the way)
- There are other things I considered, but pretty farfetched. Like, if I was Jewish, I would go to the German consulate and say that my family had to leave Europe because of persecution and now I'd like to return with full citizenship. However, this overlaps with option #3.
