Re: Visa help.

Well, not always. As I recall, he was a proponent of the idea that you could be considered a person "resident in India" - for purposes of purchasing immovable property - while you only held a...

Re: Visa help.

How is what I said different from what the MHA said? I think you may have a reading comprehension problem.

Re: GOA - Buyer Beware!

Following up on my previous post, here's some information from the FAQ's section of the Reserve Bank of India website, which may (should) be of interest to Simon Wood. If all you did was obtain a...

Re: GOA - Buyer Beware!
