@Jim ******

good?

@Bob *********

I am aware. I still think a solid one may be able to get a better result. Who knows?

@Nongnuch *******

sorry but many people would use my as a presumptive statement. You have problems. Weird thing to need to be right about but congrats? 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Robbie ******

super weird to be like this in this context but I hope it resulted in getting whatever it was as he felt he needed. Christ on a cracker.

@Nongnuch *******

no he didn’t, he said he is ‘putting it in a bank next week’ - that’s not the same as already having an account. Some new people think it will be easy and they will just open an account, so I asked to be sure he has already found one for sure.

I’m really ok without a translator 😉

I asked- he may or may not answer, but my question and my advice were both meant to be helpful.

People come here for help and the experience of other foreigners… if he wants to answer or explain that I didn’t fully understand, he probably will.

Have you been accepted by a local bank yet? Seems to be getting quite difficult. Hire an agent it’s worth it. I can’t remember the one that’s super legit- perhaps someone will come along and post it.

@Jarmo ********

name them please?

Have you looked into the costs or the government website that gives instruction? It’s not super easy but not super hard - you just need to have the money to sink into the bank here and then the proof of monthly income and source.

There’s an issue regarding health care- plenty of people in here have experiences but the govt website is a must, there’s no skirting what’s required so best to look there and determine you have the funds, etc to qualify?

@Cris *****

and this was your legal wife. Not a girlfriend who had your baby. Not that I believe that all that structure is true, but it is the way the law is structured, and those barriers are real.

I don’t have an answer, but I thought you did a perfect job of explaining your question. Best of luck with everything.
