You can get a residence visa without investing in a company.  You have to live for 3 years without legal problems, then take tests, etc. to be accepted.  To own land I believe you have to invest in a business of about $1M US.

There are a lot of international laws that govern these things.  I would contact a bank that works internationally and an international business lawyer to help you get setup.\n\nGood luck with your venture

usually for Germany, housing must open up so that you can get off th eplane and move right into housing.  Lioving on the economy is not practical or prudent for Junior Enlisted.  This could take a few months .. I know people who are still waiting 6-9 months later.

I lived in Germany for 18 months and had to go by their rules and regulations.  People coming into this country not only need to do the same for us but also speak our language as we do in theirs.  They should not be exempt from paying taxes and should NEVER be allowed to go on welfare.  They are taking money and food from all of us that are natural born citizens.  The open door policy that our country has needs to be closed.\n\nIm an American and dam proud to shout it out!!!!!!!!

It depends where you come from and where you want to live. Every country makes its own laws about this.\n\n Mostly you can move to a different counrty by either having sufficient funds that you can show (in a bank account) to your designated country-which in turn reassures them that you are not moving there to live of their social welfare funding.\n\nOr you have to be employed by someone in that country who is then supposed to go through a bunch of paperwork in which they state that you are indeed their employee and the salary you are going to receive and how long your contract is for.

Step one.  You need an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number).  If you don't have one, then you need to get one BEFORE you can send in the W-8BEN.  Get it by filing Form W7 - itself a mighty tricky form.  It takes up to 12 weeks to get a number.  The nice folks at the IRS will give you a hand.\n\nStep two.  You are a resident of Italy.  It's the country you are physically present in, not the one you where you are a citizen.  If you move to a new country, you need to fill in a new W-8BEN.\n\nThe treaty rate is 15% for dividends.  The domestic rate is 0% on interest and 0% on sales of stocks.  Without form W-8BEN, the rate on all three is 30%.  \n\nYou will need to quote the Article number to get the treaty rate.  Dividends is Article 10 of the US/Italy treaty.\n\nAll links included below.

In general, yes.  US rules governing taxation of international business are among the most complex tax rules in existence.  Coincidentally, I've spent the last 30 years learning them.\n\nIf you invest in a business directly as a branch/proprietorship or through a partnership, you will pick up your share of the income just as you would in the United States.  You may be entitled to a credit for any foreign income taxes that you pay.\n\nIf you invest through a foreign corporation, you may be able to defer income until you receive a dividend or sell your shares.  However, there are elaborate rules which in some cases require you to pay tax on undistributed income of a controlled foreign corporation.\n\nDepending upon the size of the investment, you should get appropriate professional advice.  Remember that free advice is worth just what you paid for it!

Hi mastani, there are several ways of obtaining the permanent residency Visa in New Zealand. You can come as an investor, as a "skilled migrant", in some cases as a refugee and if you have family here, you can come through the family category. As an investor, you would need a large sum of money to invest in the busyness of you choice in new Zealand. The more qualified you are, the less you need to invest. It gets more complicated than this, but this is the basics of it.\n.\nThe most commonway to obtain the visa is probably through the "Skilled Migrant" category. In this they judge you on your skills and qualifications, on whether you have a job offer in New Zealand or are likelly to get one, and also on how good your english is. It works as a system of point. For example, if you have relevant tertiary qualification in an area which NZ is lacking, you get a few points, if you speak good english (usually a 6.0 grade on IELTS is required) you get a few more points, and if you have a job offer in NZ you get a lot more points. If you have enough points (the number changes every year), you are invited to apply for the residence visa (once you have formally expressed your interest). \nOf course there are several other factor which can get you points, such as health, whanau living in new zealand, not having a criminal background and so on.\n.\nIf you are planning on coming, I strongly suggest that you get legal advice. There are a few free legal services available once you arrive in New Zealand, and there are several companies which help migrants with the bureaucracy for a price.\n.\nA firm that i know of which works with 'Migrant Job Placement' and helps clients with immigration issues for free is called "NewJobZ". I think their website is http://www.newjobz.co.nz/\n.\nI hope you manage to come live in this beautyful country, as I did! Good Luck!\n.\nCheers,\nMigrant

1. A person can become a German citizen in one of three ways: by birth, by adoption as a minor, or by naturalization. \n\n2. A person may be born a German citizen by either jus sanguinis, i.e., through descent from his/her parents, or jus soli, i.e., through place of birth. \n\n3. As a general rule, a child born to a German citizen parent automatically acquires German citizenship at birth through jus sanguinis, regardless of the place of birth. There are exceptions under present law, however, and have been many in the past. For more information about how German citizenship may be transmitted by a German parent, please contact your local Staatsangehörigkeitsbehörde (or Standesamt, in some parts of Germany).\n\n4. As of January 1, 2000, a child born in Germany to non-German parents automatically acquires German citizenship at birth by jus soli if: (1) at least one parent had lived legally in Germany for at least eight years prior to the birth; (2) at the time of the birth, that parent had a permanent residence permit (either an Aufenthaltsberichtigung or, for the three years prior to the birth, an unbefristete Aufenhaltserlaubnis). Note that: \n\na. The child must choose between German nationality and the nationality of his/her parents before he/she turns 23 years of age, unless it is legally impossible for him/her to give up his/her parents' nationality, in which case he/she must apply to the German authorities for dual nationality before turning 21. \n\nb. Special rules apply to children born between February 2, 1990, and December 31, 1999, who have until December 31, 2000, to apply for German citizenship.\n\nc. Those born in Germany to non-German parents before February 2, 1990, have no claim to German citizenship under this law. \n\nd. For more information, please contact your local Staatsangehörigkeitsbehörde or the nearest office of the Ausländerbeirat (Foreigners Advisory Council).\n\n5. A person can become a German citizen at some time after his/her birth through the Einbürgerung (German naturalization) process, i.e., by applying for German citizenship and satisfying certain legal requirements. One requirement is the formal renunciation of all other nationalities, unless legally impossible under the laws of the applicant's home country. For more information about German naturalization process, please contact your local Staatsangehörigkeitsbehörde (or Standesamt in some parts of Germany) or the nearest Ausländerbeirat.\n\n6. A child under age 18 adopted by a German citizen automatically becomes a German citizen as of the time of the adoption.\n\n7. A German citizen has no right to renounce his/her German citizenship but generally is allowed to do so, so long as he/she does not become stateless as a result. While there are exceptions, as a general rule a German citizen may not give up citizenship to avoid an obligation of that citizenship, e.g., military service. For more information about loss of German citizenship, please contact your local Staatsangehörigkeitsbehörde (or Standesamt).\n\nIII. American-German Dual Nationality\n\n1. Both the United States and Germany recognize the concept of multiple nationality.\n\n2. A child born to an American parent and a German parent acquires both American and German citizenship at birth, regardless of place of birth, if the parents satisfy the jus soli or jus sanguinis requirements of their respective countries. See the sections above entitled, "Basic Primer on American Citizenship Law," and "Basic Primer on German Citizenship Law." Neither country requires a person born under these circumstances to choose between American and German citizenship, i.e., he/she may keep both citizenships his/her entire life. \n\n3. A child born in Germany to two American parents may also become a dual national at birth under the circumstances described in paragraph 4 in the section above entitled, "Basic Primer on German Citizenship Law." Under German l
