1st year of private insurance with preexisting conditions by goodstafford
Hello everyone, I am hoping to hear from someone who's walked this path. I am trying to move to Spain on a Golden Visa. I have preexisting conditions that don't hurt my health at present but require me to take some very expensive ...

Hi Gwynj, Thanks for all your insights and concern to help. I hope you don't feel poorly repaid by all the follow-up questions I spat back at you. Just a few more words about your "thirdly" reply. I'm mostly settled on the golden ... Read More

Thanks for this also, especially for helping me see how I am "working in Spain" even though all the results take place in the US. And this is a good thing, right, because it means I will be "required" (I want to anyway) to pay ... Read More

keeping US bank accounts from closing when in Spain by goodstafford
I heard many have had experiences with their US bank accounts being closed and/or being forced to liquidate their mutual funds and ETF holdings when the institution realizes that the holder no longer lives in the U.S. I know some people just use ...

Thanks everyone, I had heard of iPostal1. Do they do a good job of scanning your mail to you, or do you not use them for that? I am hoping that since I have a US address now (and I'm not selling my house but renting it out) I can just keep it on ... Read More
