At the end of the day, I think you need settle down whereever you would be happy or happier.. I worked in the U.S for about 13 years, in U,K for 3 yrs and then in India for 2.5 yrs. Last July, we made the decision to move back to the U.S from Chennai (after 2.5 yrs of India life). Believe it or not ...

Relax buddy, don't take it personal. I know people even live for 1000 Rs. per month in India. I am talking about people who lived here for a while and got used to U.S standard of living..

I am really happy for those who have gone back to India, settled down and found happiness. For me, after being in the U.S for that long and enjoying the standard of living, it was very difficult to get adjusted. You are right, I could have said "No Thank you" and got all the proper documentation and ...

Guys, My sincere advice to those who are planning to R2I: IF you don't have a compelling reason to go back (family commitments etc) DON'T GO. I lived in the U.S. for about 13 years and went back in Dec 2009. I moved through same employer, which means that I had a good role and job waiting for me in ...

Not sure what the law is..but my bank pretty much advised the same thing. I was on a 2 yr assignment in India and came back couple of weeks back. I am also a U.S citizen. The explanation was that since I have my payments/expenses in USD (Mortgage, maintenance fees etc), I need to keep the funds as ...
