The above guy will probably be able to help you. Where are you going to be living here in the states? This is important information as it will determine what companies may be available to you.

 

Some people might need to read this thread
Spelling and TTR

 

Actually, the OP's post was presented better and made more sense that a lot of our members who's first language is English.

 

The comments weren't directed at the op but rather one of our members.

 

AFAIK, most of the industry will not hire you if under 21yrs old.

Another thing to consider is: As a new immigrant, you will need to hold a REGULAR driver license for at least 1 yr, before the state that you choose to reside in, can grant you a CDL.

Long story short, it might be a while before you are granted a CDL --- but schools wont tell you that directly. They'll take your money first, and you will find out the hard way, after that.

 

In the mean time feel free to hang out here and learn what companies to stay away from! Call it research.

 

A 19 year old wanting to be a truck driver has to be one of the most ill-conceived notions.

Do yourself a favor and get a real education, and a good paying job.
Get into a position where you can meet some nice women to start a family.
Trucking won't get that for you.
You will be isolated for the most part, and by yourself.

There are a very few that could go into trucking at your age and actually make it work. But that is something like 2 percent.
