I'm looking for advice. I have dual U.S. and U.K. citizenship and moved back to Glasgow in '94. I am now married to a Scotsman for 2 1/2 years and we are considering living in California "part-time" during the year. Does anyone have any advice about how I go about this. How does this affect my U.K. tax? Also if there are expat Californians, especially from the Bay Area I'd love to chat with you.

Hi! I just moved to Falkirk, Scotland and am marrying a Scots! You have dual citizenship? How did you manage that? Or are you talking about a spouse's visa?

I've spent the best part of the past 6 years living/working in CA...
My opinion of the US tax system is that if they think they can classify you as a "resident" of CA, they will tax you on all your income - and then it's up to you to provewhat income they cannot tax your on (and not the other way around).
I've heard is very easy to be taxed in both countries, and to never get the money back...My advise is to get yourself a good tax lawyer.
To be honest, of all the US cities, SF / Silicon Valley is the "easiest" to be an expat in - it's the most "European" of the US cities, great weather, has expat food shops, you can get a good curry and a good beer, lots of other expats... oh yea, the natives are pretty friendly, too :-)

the devolved Scotttish government (link above) is keen to attract young skilled labour to the country, mainly because its own population is ageing and reluctant to breed - unfortunately immigration is a UK political responsibility and control in London is dictated by the overcrowding of the South east of England and the blatant racism of the tabloid press.
