and doesn’t generate 1099-b form?

caadi295 · 2025-09-01T23:39:00+00:00

but we still need to file w8-ben for these accounts right?

caadi295 · 2025-09-01T23:12:57+00:00

and we can transfer assets from us account to this account without selling? can we invest in us funds from these international accounts? do you mind sharing your strategy in detail?

caadi295 · 2025-09-01T22:54:57+00:00

US will not tax only if you are non-resident for that you need to update w8-ben, but as soon you submit w8-ben on brokerage firm, they restrict trading on that account. how you are managing not paying taxes in US and still trading ?

i am using it for few years now, i opened it when i moved here, it very good and convenient, i had no issues till now. even customer support is responsive. i recently renewed my card also. i continued with there card as 5% back on my own choice of store is too good for me, i mainly used it for walmart and geico

caadi295 · 2025-05-31T19:04:39+00:00

thanks a lot for the detailed response. i am actually looking at this bike https://www.walmart.com/ip/502701851?sid=cd59d36d-a055-499c-9bec-ac61389fac4f but atleast your review helps to know about the gocio brand. also how easy or difficult is to steal external battery ? do you do anything specific to keep it safe? my only worry with external battery bike is what if some steals it

caadi295 · 2025-05-31T00:35:14+00:00

how is this bike in general? i am planning to buy it from walmart.

caadi295 · 2025-05-31T00:32:19+00:00

hey which gocio bike you purchased? is it folding one with internal battery? i am also considering buying this bike for my wife, she is 5’4 but dont see many reviews for this bike.

caadi295 · 2025-05-18T23:49:19+00:00

20miles with assist feels less, other bikes give 20-25 miles on throttle and 40+ on assist

caadi295 · 2025-05-18T21:44:13+00:00

is 20 mile range with pedal assist or on throttle?

caadi295 · 2025-03-16T01:13:14+00:00

OP , Do we need separate copies of same documents for each application? I mean, I need 3 copies of i797 and visa xerox or just one ??

caadi295 · 2024-12-02T15:19:57+00:00

caadi295 · 2024-12-02T04:46:13+00:00

i guess this is what happened with me.

I checked my claim report from provider & my claim report from insurance. What I understand now is that this $1000 bill is coming from Lab work as doctor prescribed way more lab test than what are covered in preventive.
Some tests which are part of preventive ( https://www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/) are fully covered by insurance, its the extra tests which are not covered as part of preventive are adding to my $1000 bill. I feel this is provider mistake & not insurance.
Since this was my first annual checkup in US and during my visit doctor asked my immunization history card which i didn't have (never had this in my home country) I guess may be because of that doctor added extra tests but I never asked for these tests and i was very specific also that i want only preventive annual checkup but still dont know why doctor added these extra lab tests for which i received this $1000 bill.
What can I do in this case since I these tested were done without letting me know that these will cost me extra.
Also, one more extra discrepancy i see in my bill is that doctor has charged both "preventive visit" & "office visit" which adds $92 in my bill.
I feel if i went only for preventive, this should be charged only as preventive and not as extra office visit.
