Re: What All Considering Becoming Expats Should Consider

Re: What All Considering Becoming Expats Should Consider

We tried, but the desk clerk said he was too old to be my dad and only a parent could sign the credit card transaction. (The dentures might have given it away)

Never mind. We'll find another...

Re: Moving to USA (Florida) from UK - Very new to this

Re: Moving to USA (Florida) from UK - Very new to this

Agreed, there's alway's complexities and asking for experience from others is always a good insight, but other's experiences are not a substitute for hard facts of coverage. To take comments from an...

Re: Moving to USA (Florida) from UK - Very new to this

Ugggghhhh.......which is precisely what I said several posts ago. The OP should know what he agreed to in his contract. If he doesn't, he has to ask his employer for clarification. Not you. Not me....
