      @@garrett7101 There is no specific dollar (or euro) amount required, Germany simply requires you have means to support yourself (depends on your reason for being there and family size). If you are a single adult, the amount is pretty low (approximately 2000 eur/month plus some savings for emergencies). You will also need to obtain health insurance (this will be cheaper in Germany). There are numerous websites to help with the application process including www.germany-visa.org/immigration/residence-permit/ You can apply before traveling there (through the German Embassy or consulate near you) or travel to Germany with a 90-day tourist stay (schengen-zone) and apply once there by visiting the local Foreigners Authority (Ausländerbehörde) before the 90-day period expires.

    @jamesgarner3663 หลายเดือนก่อน

    We'd love to retire to the UK. In fact, we've looked into it. But, we are from the US, and our ancestors were early settlers. By the time my grandparents were born, their ancestors had already been here for at least three generations, mostly more. And, as I understand it, the cutoff for residency by birth is your grandparents.

    • @MikeRIE
      @MikeRIE หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, however, it's still possible if you really desire it. I would suggest a 5 or 6 month trip which you can do on a tourist visa. While in the U.K., you can start the process.

    The official websites say it's almost impossible for a US citizen to get a retirement visa if you don't have a blood relative in the UK. Tell me it's different and I just may give it a go. It seems the Brits are still holding a grudge when we "removed" them from the US 240+ years ago.

    • @MikeRIE

      Officially retiring in the U.K. is not easy, and there is plenty of bureaucracy; however, it's not impossible. Actual Brits are very welcoming to American retirees in stark contrast to many other immigrants they do not care for.

    I’m a 62-year-old American who moved to southern Sweden (Karlshamn) two years ago, and I just filed for Social Security! I am definitely looking forward to my retirement here! It’s a beautiful country, and everyone is so nice and relaxed here. The cost of living is also low, compared to the US. We were able to buy a really nice, 4-bedroom house here in a charming neighborhood surrounded by well maintained walking paths that connect us to forests, a lake and a downtown with shops, restaurants and a supermarket. We are also a short bike ride away from a really nice swimming lake; as well as a very large well maintained public pool with saunas and steam rooms that is right next to the Baltic Sea (with the option for a dip in the Baltic and then direct access to showers and a sauna. There is also a super modern train that departs every hour with the connections to all major cities, and is just 2-1/2 hours away from the Kastrup International Airport located in Copenhagen, Denmark (which is where we catch all of our international flights from). Stockholm is a 6-hour train ride north (useful for things like renewing passports, etc.).

    • @MikeRIE
      @MikeRIE 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're right. Things mentioned in the video are timeless, while visa regulations and laws are subject to change. With that said, most retiring Americans would need to obtain a "Residence Permit for Private Purposes"(Niederlassungsbewilligung - ausgenommen Erwerbstätigkeit) Aren't German words fun? Currently, you will need to prove you are not a criminal (background check), you will need to show financial sufficiency ($2000/month or so without children), you will need to obtain health insurance (pretty cheap in Austria), and you will need to have a residential contract (lease). You can contact the Austrian consulate or embassy to get the ball rolling. Yes, it's bureaucratic, but once it's done once, it becomes much easier.
