Thanks

US Taxes Return After Returning to the UK

Hi all.

Have not posted in a while! Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

So, sadly for a magnitude of reasons, I decided to move back to the UK after 2 and half years in the US. :(

Re: Income Earned In UK BEFORE moving to USA - Taxable?

I don't necessarily believe that you are not "allowed" to, It seems more that most tax preperaton services just do not support Dual Status E-File.

I did however find a "What and Where to File"...

Re: One way flights for those that have moved recently.

I do regret my descision a little bit, but $500 was a big enough of a saving to do it. If it was around $200/300 I probably wouldn't have booked them. Luckily I can get corporate rates at hotels in...

Re: L-1 Visa application with criminal record

I don't think you should test the waters with a B-2 behind your employers back. As I mentioned before, B-2 are notoriously hard to get approved since an ESTA is normally needed for these people. You...

Re: L-1 Visa application with criminal record

Hmm, I would just stick at the L1 visa application and see what happens. While I'm not sure if denial for a tourist visa means automatic denial for a L1 visa, I do know that you would have the...

Re: L1-A Change to L1-B

Under UK Data Protection Act, you have the right to ask your local police for a copy of the records they hold about you. AKA a "Subject Access Request".

Might be worth just seeing if they even...

Re: Temporary auto insurance when visiting UK

I was just about to mention Amex insurance on rentals, then I saw your posts. I'm also with you on this and agree it's worth the extra $30. Coverage is great!

Re: One way flights for those that have moved recently.

You might want to look at flying into Canada and then Canada to the US on 2 separate tickets. I've just booked direct return flights home to LHR from YVR with Air Canada for $650 in May. Other...

So in that case then, it is very unlikely to get much of a deduction which in turn means next to nothing for a refund? :(
