 - certainly everything will fall into place if we are able to get a bank account open. That's the trick. Does it make any difference coming in visa exempt with regards to opening an account?

 - a possibility, but it may not be our best option. The extension would still be for 30 days, correct? Same with the visa exempt entry.
