She did not say that. The 193 million is owed by all companies who filed, including the couriers.

But there are companies which never filed.

I queried a bill I was given. I will not pay any vat without a TIN number.

> about the number of foreign workers on construction sites.

Ok. go to the parking lot of the high end supermarket out west and stand by the door.
You would think you are Southeast Asia.

However, if they were issued work permits, why were they taken into custody? They apply for jobs from their home country, but it is the employer who signs on their behalf and thus lies to the immigration department.

The immigration department also should be keeping the tally of the ratio of foreigners to Bahamians.

I know someone living in 3 bedroom house that has 4 housekeepers and 3 handyment. But, I would not report to immigration because the employer has political connections.

The police certificate is now cashless. But sometimes the machine does not work.
People are tired of being forced.

You seem oblivious to the point that they are defrauding both the govt and the public.
The customers paid the vat and the duty, and should I need to ship the product out for repairs, it might be said that the duties were not paid.
At the end of the day, you are the importer, that is why they require you email them the invoice..

They camped out outside Carl's Jr. too. And Pizza pizza, and Rollo Pollo before that.

We shall see.

The average man makes his own pancake at home, that is why sometimes the pancake mix is in short supply at the food store.

I wonder if they included crepes in their menu.

Well, they drove away many of their original customer base by requiring a monthtly subscription, which could only be justifie if one were to order mltiple packages per month. They also added a fee to repackage your orders, added expense with disregard to the environment.

That comes for the lack of understanding of the local market.

I once heard someone say that a Bahamian woman should have her kids before getting married to a foreigner, then marry the foreigner.

However, even under the existence of such laws, applications have been known to languish for years before being approved or rejected, inconveniencing and discriminationg against many people who have always lived in the Bahamas and who were born to a Bahamian mother married to a foreigner or an Unmarried Bahamian father.

You need to listen to more talkshows, as they know more about the constitution.

Not "Either parent". If the mother is Bahamian and married to a non Bahamian, the kids are not automatically Bahamian, regardless of where they are born.

Another problem too is the accountants, they sign the papers saying these businesses are making less money than they really are. While banks sometimes suspend accountants who do so, I wonder if the GOVT does the same.

However, if you are given months warning, the cars and boats will disappear.

But there is the VAT return too, they can fine for late VAT payment, so , if you have to remitted the VAT, the panalty could be swift.

Was it stated that it was their first strike?
