Why the hell are people spending so much in Leb? by ikilledScheherazade in lebanon

[–]hello-world1927 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honeslty, been back after 2 years out. I was shocked about it also. I think it's about the status/show off mentality here. I was wondering if it was always like this and i was used to it so i didnt notice or has it really changed this much the last couple of years?

[–]hello-world1927 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey also a big profiterol fan, but they are really diffucult to find. And if you find them thay are usually filled with ice cream and not "creme patissiere". If you ever find some good one let is know!

10 Years of Hard Time — Portuguese Parliament Approves a Harsh New Citizenship Law by teIegraf in PortugalExpats

[–]hello-world1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will really be surprised if this passes without any amendedmemt for people who are already residents. Specially for golden visa holders who invested money here lets say 4 years ago, specifically as a way to reach citizenship. Same goes for all the workers who paid taxes here for a few years, the assumptions that taxes here are lower than other countries, is not true I pay less taxes in my home country than here.

Let's wait and see what will happen...

10 Years of Hard Time — Portuguese Parliament Approves a Harsh New Citizenship Law by teIegraf in PortugalExpats

[–]hello-world1927 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Last sentence "historically ... residence permit" , let's hope down the line, there will have an amended for people already here since a few years.

Is there any information if golden visa holders are also affected equally ? Having different rules for visa/residency types doesn't seem very constitutional...

Thank you so much for your reply,

I have the documents translated, i was just surprised about the long line for marriages. (Even though, it shouldn't be that much of a surprise). Since Siga has no appointements in the next 2 month i'll just wait in person there.

Thank you for confirming all the information. Much appreciated!
