Re: Inheritance

Thanks for all the info. I'm a green card holder by the way, and the inheritance from my British family.

Re: Job Discrimination against Brits?

If you try getting a job as a teacher, with your Brit paperwork in hand, they have absolutely no clue what it means. They are oblivious to the fact that college and university qualifications around...

Inheritance

Has anyone in the U.S. inherited money from a relative in the U.K.? I'm wondering if I'll have to pay tax on it if I get it transferred over here.

Re: Fancy Experiencing US

If you can get here on a student visa, and IF you can afford to attend University here, and IF you are outdoorsy, you should consider Colorado, as in University of Colorado, or Colorado State...

Re: Medical Records in UK

I read just the other day that the goal is for the NHS records to be totally computerized within I-forget-how-many-years. So, obviously, they are not there yet.

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

We hit 101 here in Denver today, and higher tomorrow. Of course, we don't get the humidity, so it's not unbearable if you HAVE to go out in it! It's going to be hotter than hell because we soon have...

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

Aaah! So actually, moving to Oz is the answer, and a good bottle of Fosters! Shame I'm a bit long in the tooth for that kind of move, and I don't think they need anymore teachers :( Always wanted to...

Re: Thinking of moving to Florida. Need to know everything!

Speaking of Croydon, I was walking down Croydon High Street, or whatever it's called, in January, thinking about all the anti-American stuff I had heard since I got there, and noticed that from my...

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

I wonder if people are ridiculously overscheduled in England like they are here. I've never made really close friends all the years I've been over here. And as someone else said, when I go back to...

Re: Thinking of moving to Florida. Need to know everything!

When you've been here as long as I have, and all your kids are here, you still really miss England, but have too many ties here. Mind you, if I won the lottery, I'd be like Ozzie and Sharon and be...

Re: Thinking of moving to Florida. Need to know everything!

I visited the Yorkshire Dales for the first time 2 years ago and found them as breathtaking asthe Grand Canyon. If anyone offered me a nice house and a teaching job there (for instance Kettlewell),...

Re: should I move to Texas?

I certainly wouldn't trade Sussex for Dallas. I love Colorado, but I'm sure I would have been happy in England too. I moved over here as a young thing with no house or kids or anything. If I was...

Re: Serious question for Ray!!! (or whoever knows...)

Haven't been able to figure out what an LPR is. LP Resident? Long-Playing Resident? I give up.

Re: Are there any Expats happy in Elvira's bosom

Oh no, I know they don't force you. I've already been here 30 years! The ONLY reason I even consider it is the voting thing. But I'll probably just forget it again and go on as usual. I have friends...

Re: Are there any Expats happy in Elvira's bosom

Okay, here goes. I've been told that if you get U.S. citizenship, the U.S. make you put your U.S. citizenship first, so it's not an equal thing. Plus I object to the line ... "I renounce all...

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

I just got a very strange picture in my head of a person in a mini with a union jack on the roof, and a 10 ft. aerial sticking up out of the bonnet!

I know ... a bit slow on the uptake! I was actually looking for info on dual citizenship, but I don't think I'll bother!

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

I've been here since 73 too, and am still not a US citizen. Don't think I ever will be. How do you get Radio One???

Re: Are there any Expats happy in the US?

I've lived in Colorado for 30 + years and have been very happy here. I do love to remain as much of a Brit as I can, and my 3 grown kids love England as much as they love the U.S., or more. They go...
