Re: International Money Transfer

Thanks for the replies. To clarify, the house was owned by my dad and aunt. From your replies further reading, it really sounds like I may have been overthinking this. As noted above, $100,000 is a...

Re: Living in US with bank accounts in UK

Hi,

Re: UK state pension and USA social security

oops, misread your reply. That IS a bridge I will have to cross as US resident and citizen. Boo

Incidentally, is there a nutshell version (or indeed, thread about) what the US tax differences are...

Re: UK state pension and USA social security

Re: Living in US with bank accounts in UK
