Thanks! My research has led me to the same place. I think I'll fly down, see if I can get it done in a day, then fly home. They sound like a great solution!
Thank you. I plan on keeping a US address for banking and other purposes, so I will always pay federal tax, but I want to avoid paying state taxes, especially NY State. That adds up very quickly.
Thank you. My understanding is that NY will consider you a resident until you prove otherwise. I need an auditable paper trail to prove I'm no longer a legal resident.
I will do the same thing. I have a contract with my company that says if I work until Feb 28 before I retire, they will give me six months salary continuance and six months paid benefits. I plan on calling myself retired. I also plan on going back to Thailand in March to live. I will get a type O visa here in the US before I leave.
