Now if you are not working for an American company that is not reporting your income to the IRS (W-2) then there is no way the IRS will know how much you are making :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: If they want to find out, I expect they would. Which is closer to $21,000 - $22,000 Dirhams a month at p...

yeah just Dirhams .... is there a symbol used for Dirhams similar to $ for dollars? or do you just write the number without any symbol i.e. 21,000 Correct code is AED (like using NZD or USD or STG etc). No symbol but Dh or Dhs or dhs is commonly used. Don't know if it should be before or after the ...

For teachers, GEMS schools are not great but probably better than Varkey Group schools. Whatever they say, I assume they're in business to make a profit first, educate students second, and treat their teachers well third. Same as most companies. Make a profit, look after your customers, worry about ...

I forgot to add, check out http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/viewforum.php?f=30 - there are lots of teacher comments on their forums.

I frequently do googles for all sorts of things now. I've never managed to find my car keys with it though but I'm sure one day it'll be possible

I have been tryin to scan my computer, as suggested by tdot but unable to do so. I have my personal la...

You're complaining about the wrong government anyway. It's Omani border control that check your insurance documents, not Dubai/UAE.

I had a similar story once. When I pointed at where I thought it said insured for Oman, he said oh, yes, and let me through.

Well, he would, wouldn't he?

I thought he was found not guilty in the criminal court, but liable for the deaths (and pay up please) in a civil court?

The Youth Hostel is less than that I think. Up the road from Al Mulla Plaza in Al Ghusais so not really where you're looking for though.

Some earn 30k or 40k or more.

I hope you're not a doctor though. Your hand seems a bit unsteady - you posted the same question twice.

My visa is processed and i have recieved the copy also. but now i may not want to join as i am getting a better offer in india iteslf. are there any legal implications if i don't join them? also assuming they get irritated and ban me (which i guess they would), can i still come there on a visit vis...

There's a maintenance charge no?

Oh, and you have to be out of the country for an entire tax year too. So technically (and I could be wrong here), but if you have only just gone out to Dubai now, then you would have to stay in Dubai until at least April 5th 2008, which is when you could claim your tax back as being a non-resident ...

Oops, you're right .

If the company has arranged a visa for you then probably not.

May depend on nationality otherwise.

no need to be sorry :) .. btw i checked out your website last night sharewadi.com its very good stuff .. appreciate the time you have taken to put it together. Are you an investment banker ? (ignore the Q if its too personal for the forum) Thanks :). My desk was getting cluttered with research into...

If the P81 says you're non-resident for tax purposes then maybe everything's ok but I'm not familiar with the actual form, nor am I anything close to being a tax expert. Is it a declaration made by you? Or by the tax department? There's a difference between residency and tax-residency. Usually both ...

The school I will be working for is arranging my visa, but haven't heard much from them regarding that. I am british. You probably won't hear anything for another month or more - summer holidays for schools now. British probably fine since they just stamp a visit visa on arrival. Technically, I gue...

P81 or P85? I can't find a P81. Why don't you ask them directly ? http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/faqs_general.htm says... Q.1 In what circumstances would I become non-UK resident if I left the UK? A. Normally if you leave the UK permanently or for 3 years or more or to work abroad full-time, you will be...

Hello girls (and some guys!) where are the best spas in Dubai for facials/pedicures/massage? <shameless plug> A friend has just started up a beauty salon in Garhood (with a Moroccan Bath - but might be ladies only).

There's a collection auto accessory shops on the Deira side of Shindagha tunnel.

I should have added, there was an almost united front in 2002 when the Saudis proposed a peace agreement. It wasn't anything that hadn't been said already but it was significant that it came from Saudi and was supported by all (or most) Arab nations. Of course, Hamas scuppered that one - Israel may ...

who decides that israelis are better human beings ?? who said that arabs deserve to be killed for no reason? Some Israelis do. Much like Hamas and Hezbollah decide that Israelis are less than human and deserve to be destroyed. Arab nations tolerate Hamas/Hezbollah actions. Western nations tolerate ...
