  1. On the last page of the 2047 form, you have to declare the public pensions only, in box VI, to determine the tax credit. Mention in the box VIII the incomes assessed to the social levies . I am a bit puzzled, there seems to be no space to declare income tax already paid so how do the impots determine the tax credit.
  2. Wash your mouth out with soap, how dare you suggest that I made up what Private Frazer often said.
  3. Oh dear we are having an earthquake, oh my god it is getting closer, we are all doomed, doomed I say.
  4. Yes, but you have assumed that the car does not have the new plates
  5. Under the new system, where cars now keep the same numberplate for life, any initial change ,such as a change of address, or change of owner, results in a new "carte Grise" and new reg no being issued, so you were not stitched up
  6. I took on two cute looking children a year ago, having been assured by the rescue that they got on well with other children. However I am having a terrible time ,they fight continually, have no table manners, and chase anything on two legs. Has anyone got a forever home for them as I cannot cope any more
  7. Have any of them got a passport, and are their vaccinations up to date
  8. You, or wife whoever is the youngest, inherits. Your child then inherits Does not make a jot of difference if child is a french resident. Childs descendents/ascendants then inherit.
  9. I believe that the E101 form is only for self employed (or employed) persons who ,because of a foreign contract(s), go to that other country on a temporary basis in order to fulfil the contract(s). The OP is in a different position, he has chosen to move to France, he did not need to move to France to fulfil his contract, in fact he continues with the same contracts he had in the UK. He can always check this with Revenue and Customs http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/cnr/ca3837-info.htm
  10. Why bother to register if you still have these type of thoughts? It's generally accepted that you can move here for up to six months on an "only looking basis". Where did that little gem come from, if you work in France (as self employed) you need to register ,end of.

  12. A document saying full NCB or 60% NCB wont cut any mustard with a French insurer, I am sure thay know exactly what it means but will just take the opportunity to jack up your premium anyway, they may even ask for you to pay for it to be translated and stiil refuse to accept it without the magic words That is nonsense, if tosh upsets your fine sensibilities Perhaps saying MY insurance coy would not accept would have been more accurate. But NOT ALL insurance coys are like yours.
  13. [quote user="Chancer"][quote user="nectarine"]Cooperlola's recommendation for Nick Chubb is a good one, we used him and managed to get our NCB applied to our car insurances over here. Many companies just wouldn't accept them - we had letters from our previous insurers to show we had maximum NCB but they just wouldn't apply. However, your letter should show the number of years of NCB, not the perecentage, as it is the years without accident that the French will want to see, so when you get a letter from your UK insurance company make sure they specify the number of years. It is just a matter of asking around - some will accept them, some won't. But Nick Chubb is a good starting point. Good l uck.[/quote] When I wrote the same advice to another person enquiring about insurance I was rewarded with this: As for the nonsense about French insurance coys not accepting UK no claims bonus statements, a lot of tosh. So there you have it, à vous de juger [:)] [/quote] You forgot this bit My insurance coy 10 yrs ago accepted a letter from my UK assurers stating I had 60% no claims bonus with no mention about number of years.
  14. Nitpicking, surely if she stays at her UK address during the week she is a UK resident? I work out that she will spend approx 240 days per year in the UK
  15. I would advise asking for a quote from the company that insures your house. It is common for discounts to be offered if you have more than one policy. As for the nonsense about French insurance coys not accepting UK no claims bonus statements, a lot of tosh. My insurance coy 10 yrs ago accepted a letter from my UK assurers stating I had 60% no claims bonus with no mention about number of years.
  16. [quote user="Swissie"]Neuchatel region is hosting the World orienteering championships this week - Wednesday will be at Les Cernets just above us, and we will be hosting the Information desk. Anybody attending? [/quote] Where's that [:)]
  17. Not well thought out ,their approach, should have offered BBQ andoullettes that would have moved them quick enough.
  18. http://www.lexinter.net/PROCPEN/controle_judiciaire.htm   There is no time limit and One cannot expel an EU citizen unless they present a serious security threat to the country.
  19. As far as I am aware the French just cut normal canal tiles to use on the top of walls. http://www.monier.fr/les-produits/product/product/canal-40.html
  20. I cannot read what you have written because it is too small a typeface.
  21. [quote user="Gluestick"] And with increasing and ongoing empathy between the Anglican Commune and the Holy See, I would suggest that a majority of the Christians in UK, whether Anglican, Catholic or non-conformist, would find the comments made by the FCO employee objectionable. Thus the comment "Perhaps it is a young man who dared to say what he thinks, and what most of the country does too." is untenable.   [/quote]   I have conducted a straw poll amongst my family, relatives and friends. My wife and her sisters, brothers etc are Roman Catholics. Only one ,her mother, an Irish Catholic, has taken this as an insult to the pope. All the other, some 14 people, think it was rather amusing, and certainly do not wish to defend, in any way the actions of the RC church over the years. The others are protestants, and again think it was slightly amusing. So, out of 25 people ,only one finds the comments by the FCO objectionable, and she would defend to the death the catholic church., and has buried her head in the sand over the abuse scandal . And Not one is a rampant athiest or agnostic[:)]  
  22. [quote user="tegwini"] Well I am confident that abuses will happen a lot less, and the Pope is apologetic and has condemned the abusers,  and we assume will make changes. I believe he's sincere in this.   Clearly the UK government wants this visit, and so do millions of catholics from the UK - and beyond,  who will also come to see him. Plenty changes needed elsewhere in countries that we welcome evil leaders on state visits, but do nothing about because our government is full of lying, hypocritical, creeps! Tegwini  [/quote]   I doubt it will make the slightest bit of difference, it has taken the RC church 2000 years to come up with a grudging apology ,how many millions of children have been abused during this time, and it continues.
