Life / Moving to Krakow (and other questions) [23]

I dont know about UK but in states the property returns are like 4 to 6% depending on how strong the tenant is as for Poland one can still find 10% return on properties but strong and stable tenant yields are maximum 7.5% which I think is way better.

UK, Ireland / Do people in Poland live "better" than here in the UK? [150]

yes, it is. polish bread isn't very good for sandwiches i think.

I disagree,Polish rye breads great with cold cuts,I usually take couple back to states along with a pack of cubans and usually the customs let me slide if they find it.

Life / Is becoming a Polish national this easy? [16]

But I think citizenship doesn't have any serious advantages over long term residency

Polish citizenship with a foreign citizenship is infact is very problematic,you have to declare your income in both countries and answer to stupid questions of the tax departments and god forbis if your income declines in any of the country the both country tax departments also look into your underwear almost to get to the bottom (eg:one of my tenants left and was paying almost7k a month) but I had lot of explaining to do and numerous trips to there offices and paperwork with accountants in both countries.If given a chance all over I would stick with my old permit to settle in Poland.

Yes, but one would need to have a Polish passport in order to know that

since when anyone needs a polish passport to be a polish citizen to begin with? national id is the only requirement to have.

Law / Canadian who studies in Warsaw - Visa, Karta Pobytu and Deportation? [6]

they should have stamped your passport for extended visa,since they didnt you should go to them best according to my information you will be told to leave or given a letter for extended visa,whatever they tell you just get it in written.Usually they overlook american and canadian passport holders but you never know...law is a law good luck
