NHS letter for when travelling to Greece

NHS letter for when travelling to Greece?
I am currently on holiday in Greece - I am Greek-, but I live and work in the UK. Is there a letter that I can take from the NHS, to show to the Greek hospital, that will enable me not to pay hospital and doctor charges in Greece? I don't work in Greece and therefore I don't have health insurance. I had to go to the hospital a few days ago and had to pay full price for everything, but since Greece is in the EC, there must be a way that I can get hospital treatment free/cheap, since I pay UK taxes. thank you.

No this does not matter if you are out of the country then you are not entitled to free health care as you are in the UK. You should have sorted out some travel insurance before you left. There was a run of adverts on the TV making people aware of the fact you will not be treated for free in other countries. Travel insurance covers you for hospital fees, damage caused to the hotel in regards to flood/fire/or other acts of god, it also allows you to get help if you become stranded. (dependent on policy)

Working Visa's, Living and Schooling in Greece

Working Visa's, Living and Schooling in Greece....?
Calling on all Aussies or Western expats who have lived and worked in Greece in the Construction Industry. Was hoping someone could give me some insight into the lifestyle of living as an Expat in Greece. I currently have a close friend with a young family looking to move over near Athens to work on a Large Civil Infrastructure Project. He has a wife and 2 children at schooling age- would like to know what schools you could recommended and if so, why does this school stand out? Because he does not have any links to the UK he has to apply for a Greek working Permit and we have been told this complicates things. -What is involved in the process? -How long does it take? -What prevents you from obtaining this? Any information on the Lifestyles for an expat over there and useful tips for a family are welcomed.

Tell your friend I would only do this if I were getting buckets of money (a crazy amount). The children will have the choice of a couple of private schools which teach in English in the centre of Athens - which may not be convenient for them if they are situated outside Athens (tell us where exactly and we can tell you the distance). Also the schools are incredibly expensive and there are few places so they would have to apply - maybe the company they will be working for will be able to help. Also will accommodation be supplied as renting is also expensive in the Athens area. We had some friends here from Australia last week and they said Greece is really expensive compared to Australia (your friend should keep this in mind.) We own a construction company and believe me it's a very difficult job here - ok, the construction company he will be working for will not be totally Greek (like ours) so situations may be better. I was friends with the British that were involved with the building of the Preveza/Aktio tunnel back in 1998 and I remember the managing director (English) tearing his hair out with the Greek system and the slowness (he had previously been working in Japan - so Greece was a real eye opener) I remember trying to get a residence and work permit in 1990 before EU members were able to live here without papers. It was horrendous - I was in tears they sent me to 5 different offices in and around Kifissia / Marousi - no one spoke English - I ended up throwing a pen at the person behind the desk - all because I wanted to become legal and pay my taxes!!! I ended up staying here illegally! I am 100% positive that the situation has now improved 1000% from then!!!! (PS I now pay all my taxes) I have no idea what applies to Australians getting permits - however it does seem strange to me that the company is not sponsoring him - isn't that the norm? Lifestyle is what you make it and also depends on where you live and what you are used to. In my observations most Australians seem to have a better standard of lifestyle than Greeks. For a Brit the lifestyle will improve a lot in Greece - but for Australians I'm not so sure. Does your friend have any links to Greece? I believe it would be a good idea to do this if 1, Great salary 2. Accommodation provided 3. Private health insurance 4. Schooling fees paid 5. Sponsored for work/ residence permit or if I were alone (which he's not) and wanted an experience.

Because the season's only just starting you'd be much more likely to get something if you just went out there than if you were going out in July or something so I'd just go for it! If you go somewhere with lots of nightlife like Ibiza, Magaluf, then you should get lucky.

Why is it that conservatives think it's 'redistributing the wealth' to require millionaires to pay a measley 2 or 3 percent more in taxes? They're rich as hell they can afford it. If they pay slightly more than the poor and middle class than they will still be rich as hell. Dems aren't suggesting that we take away anyone's opportunity to become rich, but rich people can afford to help the country that gave them the opportunity to become rich and they should. It's ridiculous when the middle class throws a fit over things like taxing the richest 1% of Americans a tiny percentage more than the rest of us and then hold up signs protesting the estate tax. Really it just makes them all look like morons. What are cons afraid of? That someday they'll become rich and they don't want to give a fraction more in taxes when they do? Or are they afraid that some obscure, rich relative will die leaving them money and the government will get some of that loot? Seriously the only logical thing for the fuss to be about is GREED, illogical fantasy greed because the odds of most people ever becoming that rich are slim to none. There's no harm in rich people paying a tiny bit more, it's not a slippery slope, the government isn't going to see to it that a doctor makes the same as a cashier at McDonalds. And it's not going to help the economy to lower the millionaires taxes, they aren't going to piss that extra money down onto the populace and fix our economy with it. Cons should all just take a deep breath, quit being greedy, paranoid pawns for the rich and let the millionaires and billionaires help out a little so that we won't have to get rid of arts programs and require people to work until they're 69.

It's still early to say if it's working or not. Generally yes, but only because they can sit at the outside area in cafeterias for example, so they don't mind that much yet. The real problem will happen in the winter i suppose. In my town, the only time i heard about health inspectors -or whoever the government has sent for that job- was on the first week of the ban. I don't know what happens in Athens. The ban in Greece is everywhere, except streets and your house lol. Greeks, even smokers like myself, believe that the ban should happen, although there are many issues that the gov. didn't seem to consider (e.g. at shops under 75-80 sq m the smoking ban is general, but most of the shops in Greece, are small anyway, especially at the rural areas,so there is no space for smokers at all) Wait 'till winter and ask again.

Banning smoking in Greece is almost an impossible task and this is already a great achievement, considering the fact that Greeks are used to smoking literally EVERYWHERE. I hope it will be enforced all the way, and not just for a few weeks or months.

Will a work visa for Italy or Greece let me work in Spain? They are all EU countries.?
Long story short, finding a company in Spain to take an American is not easy. I am not able to find anyone that will bother with the paper work and effort needed for me to obtain a work visa. They have enough citizens of Spain without jobs that they do not need to bring in Americans to take what little jobs are left. I do have friends in Italy and Greece that can offer me a position in their companies that only my talents and skills could possibly fill that would then allow me to obtain a work permit in either of those countries. Now my question is could I use the work permit from another EU country in Spain? From what I have seen online most companies require "valid EU working papers" but they do not say from Spain. But I can only assume I am missing something. Does anyone know. For personal reasons I need to be in Spain.

No, the benefits to work in any of the EU member states are only for EU citizens, as a foreigner you have to apply for a work permit in the country where you intend to work, if you move to another country, even if it's within the EU, you have to apply again. I'd suggest you to go to Italy, once you're there, things will be easier for you. They're thinking of implementing a new immigration system for all the EU so that an immigrant from one country can work in another country without a problem, but that's going to take a while. Here's a link that may help you get an idea, I tried to find a more recent article but couldn't find one. Hope it helps! http://www.bbc.co.uk/caribbean/news/story/2007/10/071023_blue_card.shtml

No, concerning tourist travel the European countries have opened up their internal borders and allow tourist to visit 25 countries on the continent on one tourist visa for up to 90 days in a 6 months period. For longer stay in a country (beyond 90 days) you will still need a national visa or residence permit for that particular country. The same applies for a work permit. A work permit issued by Italy is valid for Italy only, it cannot be used to work in Spain. The only exception is the "Van der Elst" visa which allows members of the foreign workforce of an international operating global player to be temporarily assigned to a dependency in another country. The blue card for all of Europe was a discussion of EU politicians and is off the table based on the economic situation at present. Valid EU working papers means that the applicant must have a EU citizenship with the right to work freely throughout the European Union. This is often added in job advertises since some citizens of the newly added EU member countries which joined the European Union after 2002 do not have that right in full at preseent. If you need to be in Spain you must try to find an employer in Spain willing to go through the burden of justifying why his vacancy cannot be filled on the European labor market, hard nowadays. Sorry but those are the hard facts.

You can only work in the US if an employer sponsors you for a work visa. In order to get sponsored for a work visa you need to offer an useful skill and also the higher your degree is, the better. Knowing English isn't an useful skill for working in the US - most people are fluent (though websites like this make me sometimes doubt this), maybe translating between Greek and English, though I don't think there will be a lot of demand for that. Your degree from a Greek university should be accepted in the US, you probably will need to pay for some degree evaluation at some point, which however is just a formality.

(H visas) (3) You have an Employer who is willing to transfer you - but even the employer has to make a good case for you - so you have to be a manager unless you fall under category (2) above.(L visas) (4) You may get a Green card in the diversity lottery (UK citizens, except N.Ireland, are not generally eligible unless you, your spouse or parents were born abroad or held a different citizenship. (5)You own or buy business (does not get you permanent resident status i.e. no green card)You must be a national of a qualifying Treaty countries. The business must have a minimum value of around $150k (more the better) bearing in mind you will need somewhere to live and with any startup business you will need at least 2 years living money as back up. So a figure of $350k would be a nearer minimum (E-2 visas) (6)You are an "investor" i.e. you have at least US $1m in assets to bring with you. half of that in a few areas.

If you are serious about making the move, you need to also be fluent in reading and writing, there's no way to get around it.

I am not so sure you would like to live there permanently. Stay in Canada, as you are in much more secure and more beautiful environment.

I hope you are joking. Every greek wants to get away from this hell and you want to go??? I myself am a Greek and as much as I love greece and I miss the food, the weather and my friends and family I moved to the UK. You should just wait till things get better. There is no possibility of you finding a job there. All businesses are either closing or facing extreme difficulties. Big companies are getting out a there. With the taxes on all products on 22% everything costs as gold and if you buy a house you should know that it will keep on losing its value for some time. Not to mention that the political system is failing and that the crime rate has tripled in a year... I know that greece is paradise on earth and a god given beauty but we managed to transform it to the hell that is today.

The best way to find out if you can manage this big change is to make an experiment and then decide on you own. Visit Greece, for a few months, try it, find a job and then decide. Greece is an awesome place with it's advantages and disadvantages. Nothing more or less. And yes, it's true that we have financial problems, but it's not true that this will lead you to disaster as some people claimed. Disaster is only a matter of perception. You decide what disaster means for your life. For example you have the opportunity to pass through your military obligations in three months only! Who else has this privilege? Not to mention your other privilege: your language. If you come here you'll learn better than now to read and write. If you don't come you may forget what you already know. :( It's not wise to forget your knowledge ESPECIALLY since you can do this experiment for a few months. I suggest to give it a shot!

Me and my Greek man are seriously thinking of moving from UK to Greece too. We are concerned about the financial crisis that we hear a lot in the media, but every time we are going to Greece we sure don't see any financial crisis, all we see is Greeks enjoying life to the fullest. One way or another, truth is that most countries every now and then, go through politic and economic crisis, so the only sure thing is, that even if there is a financial crisis now, it will be gone one day soon or later. Now the beauty of the Greek land, the sun and the blue water of this country, the beaches, the islands, the passion and hospitality of the Greek people, the history and the culture, the monuments, the great food and so many other great things about this great country, won't go anywhere, it has all been there for some thousand years now.

Best to cheque it with a Greek embassy in your native country. I don´t believe you can go there just because your wife has a visa. Of course you can visit Greece if you have a passport or whatever documents you need. As I don´t know which country you come from, I can´t give you any better advice, but to contact a travel agency or a Greek embassy. Good luck!

Having a working visa does not give her the citizen's right to invite a spouse in. The best thing she can do, is to get someone to invite you for a specific work position, but i can not see that as remotely possible. When the unemployment number is quite high, the invitation request will not be processed in a great hurry, if at all. Only a very specialized person may be in a speedier process for work visa.

What kinds of craftmen worked in ancient Greece

What kinds of craftmen worked in ancient Greece?
What kinds of trades did the ancient Greeks have? I know there were potters, but what other kinds of craftsmen were there? Thanks!
History - 2 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
Architects, stone masons, artists, musicians, absolutely great playwrights, actors, shipbuilders, potters, carpenters, blacksmiths, metal foundries, leather craftsmen, shoemakers, brewers and vintners, sculptors, scribes.... they were the first "modern" people.
2 :
Greek Blacksmiths Blacksmiths used bronze, and later iron ore, to create swords, plows, axes, and other tools. They used billows made of animal skin to blow air into their fires to produce the heat needed to work with the metal. After heating the metal, they used hammers to shape it into a weapon or a tool. Greek Marble Quarrying Athenians used marble in their construction of temples on the Acropolis. Marble was dug up from quarries. In the quarries, holes were drilled in the rock in a straight line. Wooden wedges were placed into the holes. The wood was then watered to make it expand. The expanding wood broke the rock in a straight line. Craftsmen in Ancient Greece Most shops in ancient Greece were small and family run. Some had a few slaves along with the family members working. Some shops had ten to thirty workers. One armory in Athens employed 120 workers, but this was a rare exception. Craftsmen could specialize in their work depending on the size of the city where they worked. In a smaller community a woodworker may make beds, plows, and doorframes. In a larger city, craftsmen specialized in making only one product. Bankers in Ancient Greece Bankers had a vital role in ancient Greece. They changed money from other city-states into local currency. They often loaned money for trading voyages. The rates of their loans varied based on the risk involved in the proposed venture. Doctors and Medicine in Ancient Greece Medicine during the time of the ancient Greeks was limited in its ability to cure diseases. The field of medicine combined science and religious beliefs. The ancient Greeks believed that sickness was brought on by an imbalance in four substances known as “humors.” The four humors were blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm. Those who practiced medicine drew blood and induced vomiting or sweating to bring the four humors back into balance. Farming in Ancient Greece Farming in ancient Greece was difficult due to the limited amount of good soil and cropland. It is estimated that only twenty percent of the land was usable for growing crops. The main crops were barley, grapes, and olives. Greek Fishermen There is clear evidence that the Greeks had a large amount of fish in their diets. The Greeks had no refrigeration systems, so the fish had to be eaten before the meat spoiled. Fishermen brought fresh catches into the agora to sell. The poorer Greeks could only afford, little fish, such as anchovies and sapts. The wealthy could afford tuna, sea bass, and red mullet. Eel was considered the greatest fish delicacy in ancient Greece. Greek Market Trader Many traders set up small stalls in the agora, where they sold goods produced in their shops. The stalls were made of reeds and were probably very hot and dusty. Normally, similar products were sold in the same area of the agora. Farmers would also bring their items to sell in the agora. Greek Merchants Merchants were traders in ancient Greece. They owned boats or rented cargo space on other boats. Merchants, known as metrics, were often foreigners. A metric did not have the same rights as a citizen of a city-state. Shipping involved a number of risks such as pirates, shipwrecks, or the cargo going bad. Shipping also had good profit possibilities, so many took the risk. Mining in Ancient Greece The Greeks used bronze, a mix of tin and copper, for their weapons and tools. Later, iron was used because it produced harder tools and weapons. Athens found a large amount of silver in the mines at Laurium. At its peak, Athens had over 20,000 slaves mining at Laurium. At the request of Themistocles, they used the money from these mines to pay for a large navy. This investment in the navy paid off in their development of a large trade network around the Mediterranean. Teachers in Ancient Greece Teachers in ancient Greece only educated boys. Girls were educated at home by their mothers. Boys from well-to-do families were sent to school around the age of seven. In Sparta, boys at the age of seven were sent to a city-run military school and stayed in the barracks. In other city-states, each boy was accompanied by a slave called a paidogogos. The slave’s job was to insure the child’s good behavior. A grammatist taught reading, writing, and simple math. For education in music, a ketharistes taught his students how to play the lyre and an instrument that resembled the oboe. An instructor called a palaestra taught physical education. Most evidence suggests that teachers were poorly paid in early Greece, and they had a low status in society. ===== This should give you some idea of the careers that could be followed in Ancient Greece. I hope this is helpful.

On the islands - nothing. The land and the sea can support down to earth life without any great difficulties. Even the tobacco and the alcohol can be home-made. And in the cities? Lots! For more than 30 % of the population, life in the cities did become an every day struggle to learn - how to live with 200 euro per week when at least 300 euro p/w is needed. PS. If you like to live in the Ghettos together with poor Albanians and black refugees, than yes - the Air-hole estimates will be correct.
2 :
A modest apartment in a non expensive neighborhood will be about 350 €. Electricity, phone and water supply should be another 100-150 €. Food will be about 20 € per day. Other expenses another 200€ ? Since you are coming with a working permit it means that you have already found a job and most likely it must be highly paid in some special field. That in turn means that you can afford the above expenses. If that is not the case, then good luck to you.
3 :
the prices that Airpole gave are almost true with 350 in a downgraded area you can also find a big house, with that amount you can find in a mediocre area a 1bedroom apartment. In the rent money you got to add at least 50 euros for condo fees (during summer) and that price goes up during winter for heating too(that price depends from the price of petrolium and it's not fixed). 20 euros per day for food is reasonable if you eat out every day, if you eat at home that price goes down extremely much. If you will use a car, have in mind that you will need about 50-60 euros every week for gas.
4 :
It depends on the place.But in general i would say Food:7-10 euros per day,if you choose to cook or eating cheap food. Accommodation:From 300-350 euro in a decent but not expensive area + 100 euros for water,phone,electricity etc. Other expenditures:From 70 euros per month. Total:Around 700 euros.

You should be paying taxes in Greece. No need to file again in the US if you are already paying. But do get advice on this.

Yes, you're supposed to be filing taxes. But you can get a credit for the taxes you pay in Greece.
3 :
If you don't live or work here even though you are a citizen why would you pay taxes here?
4 :
Yes, you should file as US citizens owe tax based on worldwide income without regard to residency. It is unlikely that you owe anything, but it is worth checking as the rules on credit for foreign earnings got tightened recently. Most US embassies keep lists of local preparers with US experience. You might want to ask them for a list (although it will not be a recommendation).
5 :
As an American citizens, you're obligated to file an annual return and pay federal taxes on your "worldwide income" regardless of where you earned it. You will be in trouble if you stated that you only filed your return once in a couple of years. The IRS will be looking for those missing tax returns. Since you were out of the country for 12 years, it sounds like you may have established a tax home abroad which qualifies you for Form 2555, Foreign Income Exclusion, which would exclude a portion of your income from abroad. This would only apply to income during the years you were outside of the US. If you paid any taxes to foreign goverments, you may also qualify for Form 1116, Foreign Tax Credit, which would give you a tax credit for the foreign taxes paid against your US taxes. If you move back into the US (i.e. considered an Ex-Pat), then you "may" lose your foreign tax home consideration and all income earned in the US would now be subject to tax. You should consult with a local tax professional or tax attorney (that is aware of these foreign income tax treatments) to assist you.
6 :
I can't add much to the previous answer except that you must file your returns in order to secure the benefits that are described there. You may be subject to penalties for nonfiling regardless of your tax liability. And yes, as a citizen, you are definitely required to file.

Sometimes you can even buy them from the duty free shop right on the airplane. Be careful to buy a transformer, if your appliances are not 220 volt, not an adaptor. The latter is ok if you have dual voltage appliances and just need to adapt the plug size.
3 :
You will need a transformer to change the input voltage and a socket adapter for US-Europe, (or just buy a plug from a hardware store and get an electrician to change it for your)

We have not enough electricity after the recent riots. Blackouts are our presence. So find some aggregate first.

forget him. he dont value ur relation. and now no body value his relation. tit for tat. so pls dont go with him. because he isnt faithful.
2 :
He's your ex. Why you crying? Maybe that's why he's leaving...to get away from you. I'm not being mean but some guys are like that. Don't be all clingy. This is the best thing that could ever happen to you. The man of your dreams awaits. He won't come if you don't let this nut go.

He is your ex and the end is already here. He is your ex or not ? Time will help you forget him. Nothing you can do if he opted to leave.
4 :
wow so u want to "keep " him but yet u dont trust the fact that you can make it a year with out him??? so obviously you dont believe in your relationship, so basically the relationship will eventually die any ways whether he stays or goes, because if u really thought he was the "one" , then a year a part wouldnt be the "end all" for u .. a year out of 50 (if he was the one) would seem like nothing to a life time together.. so since u cant handle it, its better to let him go and set him free then continuing to waste this guys time since u cant trust him, or his love for u..
5 :
My guess is that his being your "ex" is half the reason he's going to Greece. How to make him stay? If he's your "ex," you can't make him do anything. Actually, you can't make anyone do anything, but sometimes a relationship can be close enough to be a persuasion to the person to change. You would need to obtain an actual relationship with the person, not be a mere "ex," to do that. It looks like you'll remain separated.

Visa is not required for USA citizens, but if you plan to work then work permit will be in order. If you plan, as you say, to buy a business here , then the lawyer who will undertake the legal part of the whole transaction can also arrange to apply for the permit too.

Working in the Construction Industry in Greece

Working in the Construction Industry in Greece?
I have a friend who is finding it difficult to obtain a work Visa for Greece to work in the construction Industry. Can someone please let me know that if his Fathers parents are Italian and he has family in Italy does this make things easier for him to obtain a working Visa? Apparently they issue only around 2000amount, and all to the senior guys who the Greeks feel will grow the Greek economy and who cannot be found within Greece/Europe. Any information is helpful! Thanks He was born in Australia and is based in Australia still at this time.

You do not state his current citizenship. That i s what counts to start with. If you mean as a labouring hand then it can be a little difficult on account that many of the foreigners that came to Greece as economic refugees are working on that field. As a certified contraction mechanic , engineer or architect he has to undergo examinations so that his diploma can be recognised and then he has to join the Engineers Guild to be fully accepted. In an already great abundance of both proffesionals it is not easy to obtain work but not difficult to get in as an illegal worker. You have to give more information on what exactly you are looking and surely are people here of that particular field that they can give you all the details. To get recognised as a EU citizen he has to see at the Italian embassy with proof of his lineage and family relations. Although that is not absolute proof it will certainly help.

Does an unlocked U.S. Blackberry Pearl work with Greek carriers

Does an unlocked U.S. Blackberry Pearl work with Greek carriers?
I recently bought a T-Mobile Blackberry Pearl. And I want to know if it would work in Greece, if unlocked. Would it work if I unlocked it and then put in a Vodafone/Cosmote/WIND SIM card?

There is a possibility that it might work, since Cosmote and Wind Greece carry the Pearl. But there might be a problem if you want to access the Internet and send MMS messages. Well good luck.

http://www.cepr.net/documents/publications/parental_2008_09.pdf Paid maternity leave in Greece, according to that article at least, is around 34 weeks. I don't see what her being Greek American has to do with it though. Unless she's working in America. In which case, she won't get anywhere near that amount of time.
2 :
Forget the law. My cousin was pregnant, she saw 4 months of salary when she gave birth. It's nothing like North America.
3 :
Some laws about maternity : •You can't be fired while you are pregnant •You have the right to change shift if you are working night shifts, to day-shifts.If this is impossible (for techical reason), you can't stop working (without being fired i mean) •You can't work, if you have to visit your doctor, for pre-birth exams •Your maternity get-off is at-least 17 weeks. •For 30 months months, after you give birth, (counting for the day you return to job, after giving birth) you can decide on of those -Leave 1 hour earlier each day -Leave 2 hours aerlier each day for 1 year, and 1 hour earlier for 6 months. (same applies for adopted parents of a kid, till 6 y.o) Dimosio: • 5 months off (two before and 3 after) giving birth (full-payment) •You can also take a special vacation, if you are exhausted, after doctors perscription about it. •2 less working hours per day for kids up to 2, and 1 less hour for kids 2 to 4.
