There was almost no conversation, it went very quickly to "Oh your self employed.

., oh, I just saw on another thread where someone mentioned that you don't pay self-employment tax on passive income.

Look at the rents, property prices, and local employers in the area.

I know, because I had to pay out of state tuition when I moved here.Some schools will ask you for employment documents or tax records, copies of your drivers license etc that show your intent to become an SC resident.hope that helps !

Start now where you are by going to a local “MEETUP” group, talk to people in your church about your interest, if you go, in your workplace, didn’t say foxhole because you are not ARMY:).

I am self employed so I can go out to the site to manage the project of need be.
