Most people will be trying to qualify for the remote work option. I just went on the eVisa site and created an application and there is a requirement for documentation to prove that. It sounds like they want some fairly official documentation of that, so some people may have a problem qualifying depending on what they are doing. I doubt they will accept people showing screenshots of their youtube channels or whatever.

It says a lot when the best the convicted felon could do for a VP pick is someone that hates his guts as much as a bunch of other terrible people that in turn hate the VP picks guts. The usual douche bags are probably already trying to spin this into some sort of 3d chess move.

The convicted felon is such a bad candidate that his VP pick hates him and Republicans with his signs in their front yard want to assassinate him. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/10/23/jd-vance-ohio-senate-trump-comments-516865 https://www.newsweek.com/thomas-matthew-crooks-donald-trump-sign-yard-neighbor-assassination-attempt-1925678

Butter is also going to be expensive in Thailand though.

anyone got a 60 day visa exempt yet?

It doesn't matter what the official limits are. Immigration can and does harass people all the time for overusing the waiver on arrival. If they harassed people for spending too much time in Thailand on the 30 day, they will still harass them with the 60day, it will just take less entries before they do it now. -
It's high in saturated fat which we used to think was bad. A bunch of studies have come out saying it's not, so the consensus is shifting. A lot of the old info is still out there and hasn't been updated.

Why didn't the convicted felon go with Pence again? Was there some bad history between them or something?

J.D. Vance on the convicted felon: Couldn't have said it better myself.

I encourage people to visit Da Nang before it gets ruined. There is construction everywhere so I give it another 10 years maybe.

Ok I see what you are saying now. The tourist visa has your passport ID #. Good question. Hadn't occurred to me before. I'm willing to bet this problem hasn't occurred to them either. For now I would be bringing my old passport with me until they figure something else out. It's also possible this visa won't have your passport ID # on it, or it will be possible to change that online. Hopefully it won't require a visit to the immigration office to sort it out although that is a distinct possibility as well. On your second question. They said the money doesn't need to remain in the account. If you are not sure if they will accept certain account types you could deposit it into a standard bank account just before your statement date, print out the statement, then take it out again.

It's probably like the tourist visa. You get a document with ID # you can print out. You show immigration your document and they stamp your passport and then hand write the type of visa the stamp is for. Just save that document and print out another copy before each trip. You can probably also go on the eVisa website and re-download the document.

Processed (non-virgin, non-cold pressed) Canola/rapeseed is the worst but I don't think sunflower is much better.
-
Regular non-virgin non-cold pressed is highly processed with intense heat and solvents. The heat damages the fatty acids which causes inflammation. That inflammation is one of the causes of many chronic health conditions like obesity and diabetes. The solvents (hexane) are used to remove the taste and other stuff to prevent the oil from going bad but supposedly some of those chemicals are left behind after filtering. The seed oils are especially bad because the ratio of omega6:omega3 is too high. We easily get enough omega 6 without them and too much is supposedly worse than sugar. They shouldn't even be allowed to sell this frankenOil anymore. There is a lot of good info on youtube if you do a search.

I think it's more commonly called canola oil, at least in North America. I will have to try find this.

It is already in the Gazette. Someone beat me to it in the post above. -
I don't know what your particular situation is, and there are definitely reasons you might still need to file a return, but generally speaking it's a flat 25% taken off the top with no tax return required once you apply and are accepted as being a non-resident for tax purposes. That includes interest from banks. Here is another link and quote so feel free to go argue with Revenue Canada about it. https://apps.cra-arc.gc.ca/ebci/nrtc/beta/ng/entry

That sounds like something unique to your situation that makes you not qualify for being a non-resident for tax purposes even though you don't live there. Like still having significant residential ties, rental income, or certain kinds of pensions. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/international-non-residents/individuals-leaving-entering-canada-non-residents/non-residents-canada.html https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/international-non-residents/individuals-leaving-entering-canada-non-residents/electing-under-section-217.html
