First thing, you must make sure that your husband has filed his US tax returns during his stay in the UK. It's more of a formality than anything. You fill out the tax form and the exemption form. If he made more than something like $85,000 in any of those years, he would then have to pay tax on any ...

They could require that everyone carries ID (like the Netherlands), but it should apply to all, not just a few. The UK required compulsory ID papers until the 1950's, this was dropped, one of the reasons was the police where using it as a form of oppression, There was complaints that the police whe...

Thanks. Those regulations are long and can be very confusing. It's hard to find exactly what you're looking for.

I'm here as the unmarried partner of an EU national. We are not married, so the tax laws don't apply.

The fees you pay must be equal to those paid by an Irish citizen, in accordance with Article 24 of Directive 2004/38/EC. Cheers. I appreciate it. I was thinking that was the case, but I wasn't sure. Will I have to have the stamp approved prior to applying to prior to enrollments? Does anyone know t...

If you enter the Netherlands on the basis of European Free Movement law, then you must be treated in most areas identically to a citizen of the country. If a citizen is entitled to some level of fees, then you would get the same. The UK is a little sneaky here. They have decided that low tuition fe...

You could do a TEFL course, but you will have a better chance of obtaining a job in South America and Asia; however, there are a few countries who will take non-EU nationals for TEFL, but it's hard. I believe the Czech Republic still accepts non-EU nationals to teach TEFL. Now there are other option...

I believe that if you have a steady income coming in from properties, in/outside of Ireland, this should prove as self-sufficient. It would be best to have the money transferred into an Irish account. You will need to get private medical insurance. As for how much dosh is required to be self-suffici...

I know it wouldn't be ideal, but if you are between 18 and 30, you should qualify for a working holiday visa. The US and Ireland started this about a year ago.
