Portugal: What is the benefit of having a fiscal representative?:
Ask her "What services will you provide for that fee?"
Portugal: Residence Permit Renewal:
SEF looks for an in force health insurance policy. You can even pay monthly if you choose.
Portugal: Tax ID Number? lawyer vs solicitor vs agent:
If you were going to be sitting somewhere, why didn't you sit in the Finanças office instead of the attorney's office? You would have had your number in minutes, not 24 hours. And you would have saved money.
Portugal: Los Angeles to Portugal:
With all due respect, it's surprising that you've done research but are questioning the water quality, electricity, roads, and whether the Portuguese eat any quality protein besides fish. And surely you've found out that jazz is very popular in Lisbon. I'd recommend you visit and see for yourself what areas, if any, appeal to you I'd also recommend you try the restaurants. Aside from serving excellent dishes at very reasonable prices, restaurants are a way to learn about the culture. Even the best chefs in the world dine out. Finally, once you start traveling and meeting people, I think you will find that you're not any more unique and distinctive than anyone else. I am constantly blown away by the interesting and talented people I meet here from all corners of the globe. And I think I'm pretty unique and distinctive myself. Good luck to you.
Global Expat Forum: American Expats and Trumpcare:
If you are an American residing abroad, then Obamacare doesn't apply to you, you are exempt.
Portugal: Expat communities in the Algarve:
I don't see any rudeness in MrBife's post. A lot of people who have never been to Portugal get their ideas from their knowledge of retirement communities in the USA. Perhaps they think that a Portuguese version of Del Boca Vista exists? There are old folks homes in Portugal, but I am sure they are not what Americans looking to retire abroad have in mind. I think a question that would yield more helpful answers is "What are some of the more popular cities and towns where I can find an active international community?"
