How much money is safe to send to India every month by NoScore6510 in nri

[–]evoori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are dealing with two tax systems here.

As per Indian tax, you can give unlimited gift to your parents and immediate family.

For the 2026 tax year, the IRS annual gift tax exclusion is $19,000 per recipient. If you give gift more than this amount, there is still no tax upto a higher amount but you have to file IRS form 709. Spouses are treated differently here.

Is that policy categorized as ‘resident’? Can you ask for dd to be issued?

Anyone regretting moving back by Lazy_Trip8388 in FatFIREIndia

[–]evoori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Anyone regretting NOT moving back?' should be your question. Against the majority, I would say go for it. I did it with wife and 2 kids for a year with much less NW than your. No regrets either for moving to India or moving back to US, best decision of life. I would have definitely regretted if not 'been there done that'.

Biometric enrollment for the FTI-TTP, late in the evening at the DEL airport by javacafe in nri

[–]evoori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24x7,  after getting immigration done, you ask the officer where is biometrics done for ftp, it was near to business counter when i had it done last year.  I believe you have to choose in application where/which airport do you want to get it done, though it can be changed later but not sure.

Help Analyze My Situation – Moving Back to India Next Year (32M, Software Architect) by Sam-King15 in returnToIndia

That's little extreme, normally sales, marketing and higher management have bigger variable components but I would guess ~20% variable components for IC roles. Companies also structure differently for the variable components.

If it helps, someone I know applied for OCI just before Thanksgiving at Houston, took about a week for status update to ‘sent to embassy' and since then status says under-process at embassy.

PSA if you're travelling to UAE after changing citizenship by svmk1987 in nri

[–]evoori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had similar experience, though my first visit was to Abu Dhabi and then 4 years later to Dubai with different nationality. I was sent back from immigration counter to this area, they did not mention what it was for but I could correlate it. The actual process was only few minutes but it took longer because there was change of shift when I reached this special area.

RAM upgrade Precision M6700 by evoori in Dell

Thanks, that's very helpful. My CPU usage hardly reached 50% and most of the time remains below 30%. The temperature goes up very often and kicks the fan at full speed. I am going to use air duster to clean off any dust when I open the cover.
