#53Been looking for a country where I can seek permanent residence status (and maybe, later, citizenship) with my family without having to give up my 1099 (contractor) US remote job and find something local (no, I'm not trying to dodge taxes, and I'd fully expect to pay normal taxes on that income for wherever I ended up). Coming from the US (all of us are native-born citizens). It's been tricky. I get why there's not s…

#55No offense but why are there still platforms where devs apply to companies? How can this work when you have significant more demand than supply? Bonus question: Why relocate in times where even FAANG heavily hires remote people to the same conditions as their local staff?
They are still not "heavily" hiring remote. Many are just hiring remote while COVID is still around. They ask people to relocate to one of their offices after.

#56This site takes the opposite approach of finding positions at EU shops that will handle relocation and visas. That certainly helps get you situated, but they’ll likely expect a long term commitment. And long term, you’ll leave a ton of money on the table.
I expect that’s why the jobs listed on this site don’t reveal salaries. It would kinda take the wind out of the idea if they had to tell you that none of these jobs pay more than $50k.
Ps. Still go through! It’s really nice over here. Just make sure you get the best deal for yourself.

If I was going to move out of the US, I'd take a long hard look at that one.

FYI my understanding is US citizens are exempt from US taxes as long as you spend 330 days of the year outside the US. You still have to file a tax return, you just don't pay anything. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/fore...

#60Cool idea, I hope it grows. Would like to see more positions in Asian countries, they currently appear very limited.
