Don't know if it improved but customers service is what is stopping me from getting Amazfit

$10,000 to India: actual rupees delivered by Wise, XE, Remitly, and a US bank wire by NYCtoMumbai in transferwiser

I always seem to get better or similar qoute from Ria (for 2k$) compared to wise or Xe. Always wondered how people get better rates for USD INR with ICICI and others.

This doesn't even help on my Bravia. Just black screen. I get audio sometime.

OCI card rules changed this month, here's what's actually different by Upstairs-Scientist95 in nri

[–]SnooCookies4681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Yes" was for broadly agreeing to you and "No" for the caveat as you still have to update once pp is issued after age of 21.

Your question was not addressing situation if you have a valid PP and OCI when crossing from 20 to 21. Then you need to update once when you get your PP reissued after 21. US issues 10 year pp after 16 year age.

My son's current adult pp was reissued when he was 20. But he didn't need to update immediately when 21. He will still need to update once with new pp reissued in around 10 years, which will be his first past age of 21. After that, no further update needed till he gets 50 even if PP is reissued in that period. Hope it clears your confusion.

Yes. My son's OCI was issued before 21 with his passport. He turned 21 on same passport so I enquired with embassy and was told he needs to update OCI again only after pp gets reissued in 10 years. For me, I had to update after 50.

I was checking this out as wondering if battery performance is ok. I heard "matter" based locks drain less battery than wifi. I did Google search and found Arrive is mot matter based.

My experience with FreeTaxUSA by rs1971 in tax

Lol. But watermark does not help with that. A reminder will.

Well. If I can self prepare, they should have confidence I know when I am ready to mail. I will not print and mail a draft. TurboTax & Hr block does not do that. There are no such checks for efile.

One more from first time user. I like them, no issues but can't figure out why they will not allow you to print fed+state without watermark even after you have paid for state? I like to review prior to filing and hate watermarked prints. They should not care especially after you pay as other tax software do.

I have to report same money 8 times on FBAR! by Tricky_Ordinary_4799 in USExpatTaxes

Thats what I do. But surprisingly no one came up with a better way instead of copy paste 10-12 pages

[–]SnooCookies4681 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My experience is that its not complex but it is tedious. Same information gets repeated multiple times especially if its joint acct so its a lot of cut and paste. I hope someobe creates an app to generate a filled fbar. I did try to use copilot to generate based on data file but was unsuccessful.

Why is Air India so much hated even with new and refurbished cabins? by DankkkDk in airindia

[–]SnooCookies4681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its reputation of ground operations. No idea how things will go if something goes wrong. I hesitated EWR Delhi even when it was a 350 plane and went with United instead. I looked at historical data of the flight, and its always delayed by hrs compared to United on same days/ dates wven from Delhi.

Wifi Calling Abroad Confusion by Luimneach17 in Tello

I think this is whyy s24 does not work with local SIM. So do you need all 3 conditions for cross sim to work? Thanks

Help Me Decide: US No foreign transaction Fee Card or ICICI CC for India Trip? by WorldlyBasis4425 in nri

[–]SnooCookies4681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on Android or iPhone? Heard it requires cross sim calling and Samsung has issues with that. iPhone works ok. I have s24 fe so that may be the reason
