hi mummies

my hub and i and my 2 babies will be moving to san fran probably end of this year

i've lived in singapore all my life so the move is definitely a HUGE change. i'm nervous, worried, yet full of anticipation.

there seems to be so much things to be settled...

really need to hear from those who've "been there, done that" to advice me on the things that i'll need to settle before we leave...

some stuffs like:

- is the SF's tap water clean to drink? or need to always buy bottled drinking water?

- do i need to inform all the banks, ICA tat i will be moving to SF?

- wat is the taxes now? 30%. i heard if i rent out my spore HDB, i need to pay taxes to US govt?

- wat kind of housing can i rent in SF? wat is the rental is like?

- since i have 2 kids ( one is 2 yrs old tod, & 1 4mth old baby), any gd PD in SF? wat is the charges like to see a PD in SF?

- tax matters. my hubby is currently tax payers. but what happens when we leave the country? do we have to inform IRAS? do we still need to declare SG earned income (e.g retainer commissions, rental income, dividends) eventhough we'll no longer be SG tax residents

-anything to look out for since i hav 2 kids?

any advice on the above issues or any other issues that i haven't thought of?
