International insurance number? Guess you mean National Insurance Number.

What your husband has said is total rubbish.

You don't need to get a National Insurance Number to apply for jobs, it's actually ok if you only arrange a National Insurance Number as soon as you start work or gt a job offer.

You definitely do not need a National Insurance Number to register with a doctor. My wife actually registered with my doctor before we married and as she wasn't allowed to work she couldn't get a National Insurance Number.

Here's a good link to explain it

It clearly states

You should also apply for a National Insurance number if:
you have started, or are about to start, work

daren is right,u can still apply for a job even u dont have a national insurance yet,
just apply later,dont worry about it too much...i know its important,just deal with it when ur already here.

I was already working before I even get my NI number... Hehe, seems that your husband would like you to work straight away... lol (but there's nothing wrong with that though)...

IMHO: One step at a time Nids:
Rent/Sell your Condo Unit
CFO Seminar + Sticker
Pack your Things
Fly to UK
Enjoy UK for some few weeks/months
Apply for NHS
Apply for NI & Job

Just take it easy... Life is too short to be in a hurry/bitter
