Homestead Exemption More information on this valuable aspect of protecting one's assets http://www.uslegalforms.com/homestead-exemption-laws.htm

There are several threads about this discussion in physician's section of immigrationportal. There is not much to say because the acceptance of IMGs is not as good as it is in US and yes, even with the best US training one will still be considered as IMG (unless of course you are a US Medical...

Pune Property Any views on Pune real estate? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What do folks think about Pune real estate? What are the upcoming areas.. In 2002-2003 I went through the process of buying a flat in Pune, took longer than...

Yes it is and there is not much of a movement.

Will this arrangement be compatible with your residency program requirements? Taking a part time job during residency will technically render your residency part time too.

I guess finding EM residency as FMG will be tougher (not impossible) than finding a waiver job!!!

A number of them are listed in telephone book :)

If cost of moving your 'stuff' is more than buying new 'stuff' than the answer is obvious, if you are worried about Canada customs and taxes your worry is real unless you are landing or gave a list of your 'stuff' while you were landing. If you are changing jobs than ask your company to pay...

Exclusionist Canada The case scenario is similar in every province. Canada is one of the most pseudo-liberal countries I can think of. Less than a hundred years ago Canada openly followed Exclusionist poilicies(mainly for orientals and indians), take any internet link to the history of Komagata...

The best and sure way is to establish a residence in Canada (rental accomodation, telephone, cable, health card, drivers license etc)and eventually file a tax return declaring your global income (at the end of the year one files a tax return in the country one is a resident of).

Some provinces provide immediate health coverage, make some calls and find out even if you had spent only one day in Canada as a PR you have all the rights a citizen has except for voting and joining military services.

1. Perfectly legal for someone to come here(on business visa)and get paid for services rendered. 2. US company will most likely show amount paid to overseas business consultant so no need for deduction of tax at source 3. Your relative is not a US resident thus no tax obligations here in US...

Recently helped a friend of mine through sticky situation. Back in 1995 we went to NYC (Harlem) DMV office surrendered our international DL and walked out with New York drivers licenses. Renewed online once. He moved to Canada last year and joined back this month in Pennsylvania. When he went to...

Send prepaid FedEx envelope along and track it to University.

The forgoing is and has been a choice and/or only option for several physician couples over the years. Everything is legal and possible; there are instances of every J1-J2-O1 combinations in exchange visitor physician's community that I have come to know over the past 10 odd years. Several of...

Criminal charges by a credit card company for non payment of bills? Not a possibility (what will happen to all those bankruptsy cases ?). Credit card companies are restricted by several state and federal laws. Their first recourse is generally to try and get their money back, second step is to...

'Medically underserved' does not necessarily mean population is 'indigent'.

They will not be allowed to enter the Canadian side without a Canadian visa. However a single entry US visa is enough to re-enter USA from Canada as long as I-94 is valid.

Since after Sept 11 all transections of over USD 5000.00 are subjected to one or the other kind of federal scrutiny.You may not face trouble in getting a MO/BC/Draft of over USD 5000.00 but you definitely will have trouble (long delays in clearance) in encashing it. I not only had to wait for...

I am in 100% agreement with hadron, Canadian medical system works in exactly the same way as he describes it. Opportunities are limited and the ones open for FMGs are basically worthless. Since the system is fee for service in most case scenarios you do not have a guranteed income. Overheads...
