US and Brazil Taxes Revisited by sjpetzold

I’m sorry to bring this up again, but with tax season upon us, wise °µÍø½ûÇøs’ thoughts turn to the complexities of dual taxes. My wife and I are both US citizens filing jointly in the US. She is also a Brazil citizen while I have a ...

@abthree Thx for all you do.  I actually put off my move until the end of year so I'm not a tax resident this year.  I have VA disability (which isn't taxed and have no plans to bring into the countries banks) but what I'm confused on is ... Read More

Since most °µÍø½ûÇøs play the currency trading game. How close are the future predictions of the value of the Real. I like this site it goes out for 3 years. It may help you to know or when to see the future. I like to review this each month to see how ...

@Pablo888 stay out of debt and have savings to take advantage of the cut rate prices of assets/equities when it comes. The yield curve has only been inverted this long in 1929, 75, 08 - markets reached new lows from the previous bear. Its pretty ... Read More

@sprealestatebrokerI guarantee you they will cut rates a lot faster than you think. They don't really care about inflation, they are just waiting until the unemployment data can justify it. And theres an argument higher rates are actuall ... Read More

@Peter Itamaraca If anything Israel's continuing genocide and constant milking of the US and the Russian-Ukraine war would make the dollar weaker due to debasement of the currency from spending money on useless foreign assets and weapons. If ... Read More

I was just quoted at 5800 reals for an immigration attorney.....does that seem like a fair price? Would you suggest doing it by yourself or going through an attorney? I know the bureaucratic process can be tough and I don't speak Portuguese (not ... Read More

@roddiesho my VA disability pension is more than enough (3620 USD/month). Mobility is not an issue. Strangely enough my guy is named Simba too, but he's a 60lb doodle and he's just way too friendly to get tagged as a service dog. Looking at ... Read More

I'm a US veteran on full disability that's retired. My care wouldn't be a cost burden on Brazil. I'm under 40 though, was wondering if they overlook age on a case-by-case basis if you can prove solvency? I'm not very interested in spending 200k ... Read More
