Moving to Taipei for Work.

Hi,

I am moving to Taipei for work.
I will be coming from Boston, MA - USA.
I have accepted an invitation for employment and will be moving to Taipei in 9 weeks.
It is a great oprotunity for me personally and professionally.
I am truly looking forward to the experience.
I will be recieving a residence visa and from what I am told I should have a problem staying year to year if I so choose.

My only problem is I really would like my girlfriend to come live with me there.  She really wants to come with me too, but we are not sure how we can make it happen.  She also wants to go to school for nursing and want to work as well.

Can anyone give me some advise where to start?
What I don't want to happen is to bring her there and be she forced to leave. I figure it can't be to difficult to get her over there with me but we are not sure where to start.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much.
