@Bernard *******

thanks Bobby and Bernard….so do we have consensus agreement?

It’s definite that you do have to report each year…?

If so…it makes it less attractive…

@John *********

thank you John.

@Bobby *******

ok…I might look at that as well..

It’s $600 for the visa. But if that means you can stay for 5 years and not have to worry about ANY mucking about it might be worth it.

@Bobby *******

thanks for that…

Just wanted to check with someone who might have direct experience.

Often I’ve read something on the official website and then someone has said …”oh but you have to do this and this as well…”

For example it says you’re stamped in for 5 years then it says you have to have insurance for the whole period of your stay….then it says you must have insurance for 3 months…. HUH?

Doesn’t say anything about renewing it every year or reporting every 90 days etc etc..

@Bobby *******

don’t have to leave the country for 5 years and don’t have to do any yearly extensions in that 5 year period Bobby..?

And do you have to have insurance to apply…?

@David ***********

what do they want to see David..

I mean….how do you indicate to them that you have 65,000 each month coming in…?

What if you send yourself 65,000 every month on WISE..?

How do you show that…?

Is it the bank book entries that they look at…?

Is this acceptable to them…?

And if it is….how many months deposits will they want to see…?

@Tod ********

from memory I had to supply a certificate of residence….?

But the memory is fuzzy…

@Tod ********
