Ask the PindMoney & tax (general info)Posted by IkkoPind
What did you lose the first time you sent money home?
IkkoPind provides general information only, not immigration, tax, legal or financial advice. Rules differ by country and change often. Confirm anything important with an official source or a licensed professional (e.g. MARA in Australia, CICC in Canada, the Immigration Advice Authority in the UK).
Almost everybody has a version of this. The fee looked small, the rate was quietly terrible, and the amount that arrived was not the amount in your head.
What did you use the first time, what do you use now, and what changed your mind?
Say the corridor if you can, for example Australia to Punjab, because what is good on one route is not on another. Please do not post referral links: this is about what arrived, not who gets a bonus.
