I do not understand why are the xpats not worried about Ikamet by cdw057

I posted a bit in the topic before, very few reactions, nobody seems to worry (I think this is or not good or all of the expats are millioinaires, for us what we have is in Turkey, it is all, we savings, property all. If we were to be refused it is ...

@azmarina91 Disagreed on the language item, you just have to have support, or buy support. It works for us, I just can say merhaba, my wife can speak many more words. But local support (bought or given is indeed needed). Read More
