Americans at MDBs (World Bank/IMF/IDB) - unequal benefits

[Anonymous]

And by the way, U.S. citizens in those insittutions do pay U.S. tax, a lot of it. Non-US citizens who dont pay tax have much smaller salaries as a result. So a lot of idiocy and ignorance here.

NOT True WIS has many families who are American US based and they get private tuition paid.

But they are not American citizens or even green card holders.

The PP was correct.

Lest this goes in another predictably wrong direction: Education subsidies are not specific only to tuition at particular schools. Families can use the subsidies at the schools of their choosing.

Not at normal companies. I got offered a three year rotation in Bermuda and company gave stipend towards one bedroom basic apt, stipend based on one person added food cost, moving expenses based on one bedroom basic apt. Once a year airfare, home. I explained to boss opportunity is great but at this time had two kids and planning a third. My wife is a SAHM so she has no issue doing it but not practicable as I have to rent a bigger place and feed several people in an expensive country. He was like not our problem. A divorced guy with grown kids too spot. They also got younger singer people to do the rotation. World Bank is a scam to tax payers

100%

Hey morons, if you knew anything about MDBs you would know that they are not funded by the U.S. or any other government. They borrow in bond markets, make a return on their loans and have extremely healthy AAA non-goverment revenues. They actually have a super high return on equity to their original country shareholders. They do not take appropriations money. So ifyou don't know what you are saying, shut up. They are not a "scam to US taxpayers. MAGA idiots.

The US appropriated over $3B to IDA last year. Yes, taxpayer $.

Not with the Bank or the Fund. They do not provide tuition allowance for Americans. If an American is married to a spouse who works at an international organization, the spouse could be eligible. But Americans would only receive tuition allowance if posted outside of the U.S.

The US is going to be needing a lot from the IMF and WB soon, not directly, but to avoid having to go to US taxpayers to bail out a lot of countries who are suffering from spillovers from Iran. Not really the time for the administration to be complaining about either.

The admin can complain about whatever org they want. Especially if WE ARE PAYING FOR IT.

No one at the WB, American or not, gets education benefits or rental subsidies. Whoever you know at WIS either works somewhere else or pay out of pocket.

That’s a lie. A guy I know from Africa in a 4 year rotation to DC not only gets a rental subsidy, but he pays zero income tax. Both his kids enrolled in W school district. Yea public school but since he pays zero income tax he is free riding off us in Maryland

This is incorrect. The non Americans at my MDB get tuition benefits.

Does his spouse work? Spouses pay much more income taxes than a typical US person because they are considered nonresidents for income tax purposes and must file as married filing separately and a lot of deductions aren’t available to them, and their US source capital gains and dividends are taxed at a 30% rate.
