标 题: 30 year fixed or 7 year ARM? ask for opinion
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Wed Mar 7 01:28:52 2012, 美东)
Just want to ask some opinion here.
We plan to live in the house for at least another 15 years because of the
school district. We are having 30 year fixed rate 4.375 for now. Loan amount
is 700K.
I heard that 7 year ARM is 3.125, the rate is pretty attempting. Shall we
switch? Any opinion?

来自主题: NextGeneration版 - 求意见:Britax B-ready vs. First Years Wave
要买stroller,infant car seat, 本来打算买first years wave, 刚好看到最近有
Britax B-ready的deal.想问问大家有何推荐。
看了一下review,总结如下
价格上, Britax B-ready stroller+ infant car seat, 340$ (amazon deal, free
car seat + 10% off) first year wave + car seat, 300+ 100=400, if 10% applies
, then it is 360$
附件: Britax好像带有不少附件,比如 cup holder,rain cover. 而且篮子很大
First years wave, 篮子比较小,附件要另配
重量: Britax 26lb 稍微重点 First years wave 24lb
对于newborn: Britax seat only used for >6months, 不能完全水平。如果是new

Paulson Funds Struggle as Big Bets Backfire; Gold Works

Prominent hedge-fund investor John Paulson, who runs the $38 billion Paulson

the global economy, pushing a key fund deep into the red for the year so
far.
Mr. Paulson's $9 billion Advantage Plus fund lost more than 13% in the early
part of this month, through June 10, leaving it down 19.65% for the year,

J.C. Penney Stock Sinks to 12-Year Low
By Paul Ausick September 25, 2013 10:35 am EDT

Struggling department store chain J.C. Penney Co. Inc. (NYSE: JCP) marches
on down the path to oblivion. The stock was down about 13.5% in the first
hour of Wednesday trading and has already put up (down?) a new 52-week low.
Yesterday the store said it planned to hire 35,000 temporary employees for
this year’s holiday season. The company did not say how many seasonal

我的情况:
2005年B1/B2来美国,06年转成F1, 10年是F1的第五年,之后OPT,10月1号转H1B。已婚。
我看了pub 519,关于status的问题,看得比较糊涂。
对于10年的税,我的理解是我们可以继续1040NR报税,也可以等2011年183天后申请
dual
status用1040(return)同时用1040NR作为statement.
因为全年按照resident报,有最大限度的退税,在pub 519还有“Choosing Resident
Alien
Status”这一段,说可以选择对于2010年全年都用resident,但是要满足下面调教。

我有个地方一直不懂,从p519,first-year choice就是dual status吧?然后在"
choosing resident alien status"这个section,它说如果我是dual-status alien,
那么我要是as a US resident for the entire year,我必须满足“1)you were a
nonresident alien at the beginning of the year.2) you are a resident alien
or US citizen at the end of the year.”按照我们的情况,我2010年初还没来美国
呢,那就不能全年的resident alien了。然后它下面还有一段,如果我选择resident

第一年从F1转成H1B, 看了很多关于dual status和first year choice都还是不明白:
背景:2011年10月成为H1B, 之前F1(含1个多月OPT),已婚,spouse在美国H4身份
看到很多人的做法是file extension,等到2012年5月能通过2012的183天substantial
test之后,能够使2011年也能按照resident alien来报。
问题是,2011年是算以下哪种情况?
1. 全年resident alien - 似乎不大可能。因为pub 519中写道:
If you are a dual-status alien, you can choose to be treated as a U.S.

Having researched here for over 3 years, I will say, this year, in my
opinion, is the best year in term of case approval rate in the past several
years. Never seen before that almost everyday, there are 3 or 4 reporting
green. Typically only less than 10% of approval cases will be reported here.
Very exciting results come out for this fiscal year. That being said, if
such momentum remains, we will see a record number of EB1 Approval in 2012..
