I think St Lucia is only 100k, was going to do the monaco investment program for 400k but then the bear market started and I think it's not open anymore.

Congrats, you now have proof that you wired money to an exchange back in 2012 when a bitcoin cost $10.

You banking records are confidential so you bank can never confirm nor deny any of it. Besides they will never check. A well done fake is just as real as the real thing so they'll never suspect a thing.

I just checked the documents I submitted and as proof of source of funds I just gave them an affidavit saying I made the money by working. That's it. If it ever turns out that I lied they can use that to revoke my passport, but since it's the truth it's all right. I could actually have given them my W2s but they didn't even ask for them. All they want is to see that you have enough money to buy their passport. If you have the money you should totally go for it. Your agent will make it work, don't worry about it.

There is no minimum. You don't need to show all your crypto, just 150k worth of crypto (enough to pay for the donation). You also need to show bank statements for a year (not from all your accounts, just one). Doesn't matter how much you have in your bank account, but if you don't have 150k in your bank account then you need to show proof that you have 150k in crypto or something else.

Ireland like the UK has a 'non dom' program, good for 10 years. Its one of the reasons the UK is one of the largest tax havens. Won't work for Mutts though
Also, The EU passport lets you live anywhere in the world without having to pay tax back your home country (like the mutts). Lots of freedom in an EU passport, regarded as some of the best in the world as you can stay for longer than 90 days in the Europe...a residence permit would do the same though.

>>52728149
>Why pay 500k for Bahamas
Pretty sure thats if you buy (over priced) property or invest in business. The 100-120k is just a Straight up 'donation' aka money is gone forever.
This is how most schemes work a lower price for a donation & a higher price (at rip off prices) on select Real estate.
Turkey as an example, you can buy any real estate so your not trapped into 'pre appoved' projects.

Jelly, especially with the Irish passport as it is IMO the most powerful passport in the world (gives you UK _and_ the EU).

Canadian is also based because it gives you 6 months in the US, basically better than the actual US passport for the US because you aren't in the US tax system but can stay there for a long time. Only problem is some politicians in Canada speaking about doing US style
citizenship based taxation.

>a residence permit would do the same though.

you don't have to get the passport, the 1st step it to become a citizen, you can get the passport later.
I will say that once you've had an irish passport renewal is EASY AF. like take a selfie & send it in easy. With Canada you have to have another Canadian sign that picture to confirm its you.

Last but not least, If you're traveling & need the embassy you can use any EU nation embassy. So it doesn't matter you can always have access to an embassy.

Turkey is the 'cheapest' as instead of a donation you get buy something that could gain in value (or at least maintain its value over time in the long run) & not just be a one off payment.
I also believe that Turkey is the only one that offers any real estate & not some pre-approved scam/bribed RE.
Some do offer Bonds (north Macedonia i know is one) or investment in a biz (UK & the US among others offer residence) some offer a passport, pretty sure Austria offers a passport.

I presently have all of the documentation prepared and have paid the fee for the foreign birth registry. All in all, the process up until this point has cost about ~ $1000 CAD. At this point, all I have to do is mail all of the documents to Ireland and wait for it to be processed (apparently there is a backlog since Covid and the processing may take up-to 2 years). Unfortunately, my mother didn't obtain the citizenship (if she did, I would have a much easier time getting it - in fact, I think I would be born with it). Since my eligibility is based on my grandfather being Irish, I don't think my children will be eligible (unless I actually move to Ireland and they authentically become citizens).

Anon, i'm not going to argue with you...as yes, you're correct. I think the only rebuttal I can say is the USSR (joke) has proven that their military is sub par...they can't even take over a shithole 2/3rd world country like Ukraine.
Sadly Georgia has the issues that you speak of (which I'm loving b/c personal safety here is SO amazing, like go to a club with thousands of people & leave your phone on charge...it will still be there when you come back, people are SO friendly here) please come here & see the Georgian people. The issues exist...end off, can't argue & won't. Sadly, i hate the Russians that came to Georgia, they're not polite, sure some I like...but none I consider friends like the Georgians.
Georgia has
>non territorial tax
>not part of NATO/EU/Whatever..its still (for now) independent
>it can't join the EU as its boarder is (as you've said) disputed
to put his as bluntly as possible, Is the federal government of the US a positive thing? Is the EU not simply just the United States OF EUROPE? i.e the federalization of Europe? do you think that's positive?
>Georgia through (Saakashvili) (whom i've met (briefly)) has made it unlawful to raise tax without a vote by the public. look up 'the grace commission'...All tax that gets paid (probably in your country also) is 100% just to satisfy the national debt interest ONLY.
>They already have some Georgian territory occupied on the northern border
I hear its 20% of the country, but as i've said above the USSR shows it can't do what the world thinks. Georgia is as western as Ukraine, the people are 'white'ish, they're so much more western than the roaches.

look Anon, desu I don't care. before Russia invades i'm out of here...but in the mean time. I'm liking the country, the people, its just one of the hundreds of countries that i can visit. i like the benefits while i'm here

Yeah, I head about that from friends over there. I'm sure if I were there, I'd've been raging, but it'd still have been worth it in the long run to drop my amerigoy status sooner rather than later.

k, so in a nutshell (I have no exp personally or friends that have exp with) you can move to Ireland or UK & not pay any tax on foreign income. i.e income that comes from outside the country.
This (among other reasons) is why the Russians moved to London in the 90's

Lets bring this down to boomer company law (how its based)
You have X company that is not only outside the UK country but it income also is, you don't get taxed on that, PERSONALLY. You could set up offshore (lets be honest, this is the biggest reason why the UK is one of the largest tax havens) & claim its income via that to not pay tax to the UK. Its not simple like just move to the UK & not pay tax. Best to have some solicitors to help you.
Personally, I'm UK & Irish Citizen so these laws don't apply to me as i'm already a citizen.
But please, from my understanding, you best be willing to pay someone to help you defend this...this law is not for the poor.

No clue desu, but if you have a company offshore (of the UK/Ireland) i don't see why not. The UK is constantly fighting it out for the worlds largest tax haven with the US (via FATCA). The UK brings those 'offshore' jurisdiction to reality. Most of the offshore 'tax havens' are UK related. good doc to watch, it will help you understand how...

Just saying
No matter what, I'm not a citizen & free to leave. I'll walk if I need to!
At this time, I like the freedom that's offered, I truly hope I'll leave before then.
Thanks (seriously) All the best to you finding your place in this fucked up world.
