Italian Deli Recommendations
Mamma mia, dario... I'd like to find the same thing - a good Italian deli. Ragu Rustico Italiano in the (now defunct) Promenada Mall was an excellent restaurant that also had a small deli section. Sadly, just a memory now. You might try asking around at the better restaurants where they source out tbeir Italian ingredients. Buona Fortuna! -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Bunk. If DTA says certain income, like govt pensions, are "exclusively taxable" by source country -- that's it. Thailand has no authority to tax same. But, using the US-Thai DTA: Thailand has "exclusive taxation" on US source private pensions. But -- because of the "savings clause" integral to the DTA -- the US also can tax these private pensions, although their taxation authority becomes secondary to Thailand's. And, as such, the US has to absorb a tax credit for the Thai taxes paid. Thus, Thailand gets to keep all taxes paid, and the US collects none -- if credit exceeds US tax bill. Or, collects the difference between US tax bill and the Thai tax credit. Result: You, the taxpayer, end up paying a tax bill equivalent to tax bill of the higher taxing country. Now, Thailand could, in the above example, decide to abrogate their "exclusive taxation" privilege of private pensions. This is a so-called "override," and is frowned against by the OECD, but is allowed if it doesn't violate the spirit of the DTA, mainly, avoiding double taxation. https://repository.law.umich.edu/book_chapters/330/ But, Thailand would be daft to override this "exclusive taxation" privilege -- and forego taxes needed for its coffers. Thus, their best avenue is to say nothing about excusing taxation, if taxes are paid in home country. As such -- in my case -- if I remitted my private pension income into Thailand -- and it amounted to "taxable income," because it exceeded TEDA and the freebie bracket -- I'd file a Thai tax return (if it didn't, I wouldn't -- with no chance of any repercussions of note). Thus, Thailand would collect taxes from me, they otherwise wouldn't had they put out a dictate of "no need to file Thai tax return for income taxes, if paid in home country." The final result: My total tax bill for the year wouldn't be any different if I only had to pay taxes to the US: Because the US has to "eat," via credit, the taxes I paid to Thailand (if any). And, if I had no Thai "taxable income" after subtracting out TEDA -- then no additional effort needed to get a TIN and file a Thai tax return. [But, if I owed Thai taxes, and had to file -- I could easily do this by mail, and not wasting time, gas, and parking by going to TRD. No big deal.] -

UK Immigration - Stranger Danger!
Must be a quiet day at school. If you got more involved when you have no teaching, instead of writing drivel on your computer, you might get on better. By the way, your hourly rates are wrong and immigrants don't get houses. It seems you are not the one who should be answering your alter ego's questions. -

Official: Trump Nominates RFK Jr. for Health Secretary
You raise an interesting point. "overwhelming scientific evidence". Who controls said scientific evidence? IMO someone coming in to shake up the CDC, NIH, big pharma and big food can only be positive.
