Car in Joint Names to avoid succession problems
ssomon replied to Laurier's topic in French Legal Issues
I think this would be covered by a Donation entre époux I suggest you discuss it with your Notaire. -
Barclays to close UK accounts for non residents
ssomon replied to DaveLister's topic in French Finance
Don't worry, it won't bother them living on their yachts in continuous beautiful weather. -

As the URSSAF report all relevant information to the Impots we have never had to report it on our tax declaration. We receive our credit automatically on our Avis. We don't use the service you mention, as our gardener doesn't want to register for it. He prefers to get his payments directly from us for each visit, and it's quite nice to receive our credit in one payment.

The word is sheer -
Actually, it depends on what you agreed to in the sale document (Acte de Vente) which you signed, so I suggest you read it. Legally, Taxe d'Habitation is payable each year by whoever occupied the property, and Taxes Foncières by whoever owned it, on January 1st. In practice, in many Departments, it is customary for the full year of the Td'H to be paid by the seller, and for the TF to be paid proportionally by both he buyer and seller. However, buyer and seller are free to make and record whatever arrangements they agree on for the sale.

A BnB room in Figueres. On top of the crummy view it took at least 20 minutes to find a new parking space every time we used the car. But it was cheap. It was an experiment, in Figueres we now stay in fairly decent hotels with their own parking.

We drove through Tours just after the main bridge had collapsed There was a diversion to cross the river by a temporary bridge, which was a shambles, and it was pretty scary to see the collapsed bridge we had driven over so many times. Tours was on our usual route from Spain to UK, but the next time we went through the main road and bridge had become mostly bus lane, so that through traffic was restricted to one lane on each side, partly blocked with parked cars, and with multiple traffic lights. Nowadays we avoid driving through there by taking the A20 to Vierzon, then using N- and D- roads through Blois to Le Mans. A much nicer journey.

Corruption is also when an official forces people to do something for him/her by using his/her senior position, by controlling lower officials he/she has appointed, or simply by bribing people. Sound familiar?

I always ask for a receipt, but I'm glad they no longer give them automatically. There is a Carrefour market just up the road from us, and maybe there will be less receipts thrown out of car windows and drifting into our garden.

What should be done to discourage hopeless cases like these? Really severe punishments to impress their peers? 10 years of education for seems to have had little effect on this individual. https://france3-regions.francetvinfo.fr/occitanie/herault/montpellier/il-s-amuse-avec-une-allumette-et-cause-un-incendie-le-pyromane-de-15-ans-sera-juge-en-septembre-dans-l-herault-2824088.html#at_medium=5&at_campaign_group=1&at_campaign=france3regions&at_offre=4&at_variant=Occitanie&at_send_date=20230811&at_recipient_id=459386-1651791101-1b2fba3b

You're being very generous in your assessment😄

Not if you check the terms related to the purchase and make sure the vendor is using an appropriate export scheme to reduce the cost.
