As I was working on my taxes yesterday many questions arose about how I’m going to handle my future income from overseas. No answers yet, but I do have orientation coordinators and am supposed to be assigned a “buddy” to help answer my questions. I do not consider myself a worrier, but these seem like worry-type questions to me. Anyway, I figured keeping track of them here might be a good thing. So here goes…
How do I move money from over there to my bank here to cover the bills here? Do I need to set up a separate account so that someone else can have access to it here? Will I be able to fit the stuff I want to keep, but not share with renters, in my storage here? What about the things the kids still have here? Where do those go? Are they really excited enough about my adventure that they don’t mind not having this place to come home to? Do I disconnect all utilities for renters to reconnect or try to include utilities in the rent? (I am SO NOT a landlord kind of person!) As you read this, if you think of any others, please feel free to put them in the comments.
