Travel / Wifi in Poland [6]

Yes you can get a modem from any wireless provider charge it and you have it in most of Poland.In south and east of Poland I recommend that you get the sim lock opened for that modem as some providers have bad coverage there so you can then buy credit from the provider that covers that particular area.

Law / Maintenance Claim From Mother - Poland [19]

Some old babcia in my wifes village in Poland gets around 2000pln a month from her 2 daughters after she sued them.Since she never worked in her life she dont get any pension from the govt and was never married legally.We dont know the whole story but couple of years back it was talk of the town there.

In Op case I would suggest get a fierce law firm and drag the case till she gets tired(also depends on her age) and her funds to sue dry(that will be my policy atleast).

Work / Native English looking for a teaching job in Poland [135]

When I was applying for a residence permit at one point they wanted 'oświadczenie o niekaralności'

The same with me,but I just went to the local Police department and got one and got it translated by a sworn translator.Also I think it depends where have you been living and for how long at the same residence,i had no probs as we are living at same residence for last 28 years.

Life / Sending a document by Train Post (Poland) [6]

Just go to the conductor hand him/her the envelope and 40 pln bills and tell them who will collect it at the other station.then call your recepient with the train number and conductors info.I use to send paperwork from Warsaw to Sidelce and terespol,40 pln will get special attention but you can get away with 20 pln also.people also send money that way in Poland and abroad.

Travel / Two Older Polish American Sisters to visit Poland 1st Time [29]

There is an free local guide app "Showaround" for IOS & Android.You can contact the locals who will give you a city tour.Some do it free and tons of them in Warsaw and Krakow.Just as courtsey buy them lunch/dinner.Its the cheapest and best way to get around in a new city.

Free Guides are better as they are looking for ratings and will do there best then the ones who overcharge mostly there.

News / Poland versus Greece in economy [175]

I would give the EU & UK another 10 years for there economic and migrant misery plague.I hope Poland stands for its policies and keeps itself distant and safe.I saw a Mosque being built on Pulwaska on the way to piesczno and stopped by to ask what it was and saw the Polish workers having lunch with pork kielbasa,but no one objects.

Travel / Two Older Polish American Sisters to visit Poland 1st Time [29]

Depends for how long you going to go for and what kind of hotels/food will you prefer.In april 2 return tickets to eu can be almost 550$ each.Rest depends on you.You can live free via couch surfing etc,or stay in hostels or rent hotels.I think 3000$ each will be enough if you go in budget with return fare for about a a month to 45 days.

Sorry just read you said 2 weeks,then you can travel to Poland ,copenhagen,budapest,prague etc veru comfortably.

News / The number of millionaires in Poland is on the rise [15]

So out of interest how many million zlotys do you need to be considered very wealthy in Poland.

I have been thinking the same.I know in States there is no limit.I have experimented to live on bare minimum in Poland and spent only350 pln for food,public transp,fone,cable,internet and flat spodzelnia fee(paid off little 40 sq m flat) for 2 weeks.But when coming to spend even 35000 pln will not be enough (expensive wino,flat at Zlota44 in warsaw,eating at MS restaurants,expensive cars etc)

Thats why I always wonder what is rich??

Law / Urgent - Poland's National Visa Expiry and 90-days Visa-free Travel [8]

Dude just take all your visa papers etc and do a visa run to Ukraine.Only safe way to play it.If the guard questions you explain him politely and respectfully that you were on a visa in Poland and now you coming as visitor to travel(never say visitor to do business chores etc,as a in US they deport people who come as visitors from visa free countries to give lectures or do any kind of business activity,lately a european professor was almost deported but presidents office got involved since he was very influential prof)

Law / Illegal in UK but moved to Poland with Polish wife help for residence card [65]

Yeah they do that,they kept my driving license,birth certificate,marriage certificate also when appling but so what ,you can get duplicates back where u had them from.

And yes your wife could get the marriage certificate cuz she was a party to it.
But get ready for a long and expensive battle to legalize yourself in Poland and stay away from coppers,if you have any incident they might use that against you.
