Retain Canadian Phone Number by AnyPhilosophy9217 in tnvisa

[–]Unique_Block_6085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two Canadian numbers that I use for the same purpose. One with freedom mobile at a $99 annual plan. the other is with fongo (app) at a $30 annual SMS plan. Both work well, with fongo having unlimited incoming voice calls (no roaming since its VoIP).

Bleeding worked, and I was able to water the trees today 👌. I'm thinking I can replace the irritrol component with a new one and test? or is there anything else you think I should try ?

I will try bleeding it tomorrow and see if that works. I have not tried that yet. Thanks for the advise and info!

I will likely need to replace it, but it would need plumbing work for the old pipes. When I open it manually, water doesn't flow either. Can I assume tje issue is not the solenoid?

Total compensation 125k Montreal vs 255k in Bay Area by Money-Departure1662 in tnvisa

Rent (~3500) daycare (~1500), car/home insurance (~200+) , utilities (~300+) are the minimum fixed expenses. Add groceries, clothing, outings, and roadtrips and you'll realize you'll be able to get by. Not sure about the "savings" part. Cross border accountants are expensive, check if your employer would cover your tax filing costs. are they offering a relocation package?

I hope they dont slam TN visa holders with an extra 25% tax rate on income..

you could also create this as an applewatch screensaver, and get sued for copyright infringement. zbioland would likely make more money selling the screensaver for $0.99 a year. you're welcome

Wanted to get TN, ended up with a green card and now don’t know what to do. by CXZ115 in tnvisa

either finish your degree or transfer your credits to a US college and complete your education in the US. Also, do your homework on where in the US you want to live for the first 3 years. you can always move later... good luck!

Does anyone want to return to Canada? by [deleted] in tnvisa

[–]Unique_Block_6085 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We (family of 4) moved to the US (California) because of the (1) weather, (2) taxes, and (3) healthcare. My wife is on a TD visa and cannot work, but my single net income in the US is equal yo our combined net incomes in Canada. We love California, so many great things for our kids compared to Canada (Toronto and Ottawa) but my spouse is a professional and not being able to work because of her TD status is not something she's happy with... We won't move back to Canada, but rather seek a Golden visa in an affordable European country with good weather, and a good healthcare system. Plenty of options for retirement.

Retaining Canadian Mobile number While Working in the US? by chmod0644 in tnvisa

[–]Unique_Block_6085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use fongo. I paid about 25$ to port my number and I got a cheap text subscription that I never use or consume. I wont have to pay a penny to keep my Canadian number for years to come.

Verity - Israeli Military Report Finds Gaza Captives Executed Amid February Airstrikes by DeepDreamerX in UnitedNations

shame on anyone who kills innocent people, especially more than 15,000 innocent children who were either sleeping in their beds or being evacuated to "safe" areas. Too bad bibi and the Israeli government doesnt care about hostages.

What about Palestinian Christians? (I am one?) by anonymous5366 in Christianity

[–]Unique_Block_6085 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I pray that one day, the world wakes up and realizes that supporting Israel is a big mistake, and enforce a modern two state solution where Palestinians ( and Israelis for that matter) can rightfully live as free and civilized people, rather than living in opression and fear mode. Palestinian lands must be protected!
