Thank You for the response.
This is our situation, as I know it now, May 21, 2007
We have built a home in Le Cieba and is should be
finished any day now( even though it is 2 years since
we started) and we expect to ship our belongings to
furnish it in either late July or August of this year.
And, as I mentioned we have this Nissan SUV we will
also be shipping there. We plan to use the property
for vacations over the next few years, and eventually
possibly move there,as my wife is a national, but
because of the rental car situation, we decided to
purchase a vehicle and leave it there for our
convience. I can not say for sure if we apply for
residency at any time either now or in the future, I
may know more once I speak with Social security. I
will be 62 before Labor day of this year. We are in
the process of getting the garage closed in now so it
has some protection from the elements and is out of
sight, and can be locked up when we are not there.
As far as vacations, we expect to spend only a few
weeks at a time, and then a month, and then a few
months at a time there. Now it is not possible.
Yes, I know I probably have some of the rules mixed
up, but that is why I need accurate information, the
consulate changes each day,depends on who answers the
phone, so it is difficult to get a GOOD answer from
them in Houston, The last number we recieved from
Miami was $7,000.00 on the truck which seems really
excessive, and way out of line.
After we get belongings in this summer, we plan a
vacation in November with friends that will be renting
a home in Roatan and we expect to go there for a few
days, perhaps we can meet in person.
I hope I have given you enough Info to clear thins up
some.
Thank you for your help
