Re: Tax on sale of UK home?

Just sell before moving (EDIT; and make sure you leave no traces behind). The less the Fisco (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amministrazione_finanziaria) knows about you, the better.

Re: Covid present in most regions of Italy from Sept 2019

But this is not really news. There was a report of Covid-19 antibodies found in Spain from way earlier than that. False positives?

Re: Certificato penale

I would say only a recent DBS is an equivalent of a "certificato penale". I have a recent certificate from ACRO and it says clearly it doesn't substitute a DBS.

Re: Covid present in most regions of Italy from Sept 2019

Re: English speaking children at Italian state school

Things must have changed recently. My ex-partner's children had free bus passes till the age of 14 or the end of "scuola media", but only for the local "municipalizzata". This was in Tuscany 10 years...

Re: English speaking children at Italian state school

Private schools in Italy are not necessarily better than state schools. Most famous "Licei" in Rome are state schools. Nevertheless, even highly educated Romans speak in an annoying Romanesco/Lazio...

Re: English speaking children at Italian state school

Also don't expect your kids to learn the best Italian in Rome as local pronunciation can be atrocious, although funny (think Cockney vs Queens English). But, in fairness, this can be said of...

Re: English speaking children at Italian state school

No direct experience, but I'm pretty sure even 10 yo is young enough to pick the language in few months. I wouldn't worry that much.

Re: TALK THE TALK. ITALIAN LANGUAGE QUESTIONS.

I don't really use "swings and roundabouts" in English that much as it sounds a bit too stilted, but I would say "i pro e i contro". But it also depends on the context. Maybe you can quote the whole...
