  1. In changing from UK to French plugs are there ever problems with polarity?  I understand you can get 'live' on either wire in France.  (by the way, superb forum!) Smiley
  2. Hello Sunday Driver, We found your reply to Carina most informative. My wife and I are planning to move to France in the summer of 2007 initially as a trial and if it works out we hope to purchase a property the following year.  We are both over 60. Is it correct that the health contributions are charged on taxable income even after one has attained retirement age (60).  Is the same true of Social Contributions?  If so, 16% charge on unearned investment income plus French Income Tax is going to be a big tax hit.  This would seem to offset the otherwise favourable French income tax rates. We would be most grateful for any guidance about this which you can provide.  Could you point us towards any helpful up to date guide to French taxation? Smiley
