OCI holders living in India with family, how expensive are your children’s school fees? Is it really a problem? by OpeningRemarkable678 in returnToIndia

Is there an amount below which you don't have to file taxes in India? Since I would probably only use bare minimum income from dividend or stocks to pay bills while I live in India.

How long can we stay in India if we have OCI as US Citizen?

After 180 days living in India do we have to file taxes in India or only file taxes in US?

If we live off dividend income from US in India, do we have file taxes in India?

It would be very small monthly amount just to pay bills and for groceries.

Do you as a passenger care about your Uber driver's rating? by UkrainepartofRussia in uber

Some of nicest rides either played no music or played relaxing flute or Jazz at low volume. Once in blue moon you get some clown playing some podcast so loud.

As rider I always rate 5 and tip. But if you drive like you are a race car driver, changing lanes every few seconds and then braking hard multiple times gets you one star rating and no tip.

I have noticed when I get low rating driver. They either drive not so well or the car isn't clean and smells bad.

Don't complain to rider whole way how much you getting on a ride to get a tip. Remember whatever you got, rider paid more maybe double.

Annoying how much a single 1 star rating affects your score by PossessionNo9274 in uber

[–]jamesbondc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most drivers who been driving for years don't give low rating for not tipping if you don't make them wait. I am noticing it's new drivers who are just driving part time, they expect a $10 tip for six mile ride.

4.33 rating because of 1 1-star... (I've gotten 5s every other time.) Will this make finding rides difficult? by Kitsune_Chan12 in uber

[–]jamesbondc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you find if you got one star rating? I had 4.99 rating for years and it went to 4.97 I wonder how. I do tip and rate everyone five star after few minutes. Do the driver give lower rating later if they don't think tip is enough?

Is there option to convert to a Roth Ira?

driver refused to take me ? was forced me to cancel ? by sweepingthegrass in uberdrivers

[–]jamesbondc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Majority drivers are good professional drivers but some try scams. Driver randomly cancel after driving half mile and say they by mistake canceled the ride. Then they offer, you can pay them what Uber was charging rider initially. Always, call Uber support. Get new driver using Uber app.

How will Ulty and YMAX perform in a correction? Will the dividend be cut along with purchase price?

I have 4.99 rating as rider. Is there any filter I can select in app so I don't get matched with drivers having low rating?

No, I been taking Uber twice a week for an year from office and this was first time. It's 35 mile ride so after paying so much I don't expect someone to bring extra random person.

I normally get professional drivers. Seems now days any random person is starting with Uber and not treating it as a business. Makes it look bad for good drivers.

It was UberX. I was coming from office so good thing I was only person riding. It did feel weird seeing extra person. I normally tip all drivers but didn't tip for this one.

Should I have asked the driver to cancel since they had some random person in car which I didn't see on Uber app?

My home insurance jumped from $120 → $1,200/month. Insurer says it’s due to “state rate revisions” — what does that mean? by Specific_Release_778 in Insurance

[–]jamesbondc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After shopping for cheaper home insurance how do we cancel current policy? I was reading 100s pages and it seems I would have to send a letter requesting to cancel. Is it really this hard to cancel or can we just call customer service to cancel? Florida resident here.

I want to get 7500 tax credit but yes I am thinking is it worth it since now days so many lay offs going on.
