Does anyone know where I can get an english copy of the instructions for filling in the 'unico mini' tax return form? My Italian is good but this has me baffled!!

We have just received our new tessere and they are now micro chipped. There is an accompanying letter that days we have to take it to the 'appositi sportelli' to have them validated.

I have just received my tessera after a lot of chasing. It is only valid for one year. Is this normal?

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions about how we can deter a very persistent crow from trying to break into our house? This started about a month ago when we noticed strange marks on our glass doors and windows.

Hi Its me again! I do find this forum so useful.As I said in my previous post (is it too much?) we moved into our house in November and we have found it quite an experience so far.

Having moved into our new home in November we are about to renovate the area around the house. The area is part concrete and part rubble/ shale. As we have steep woodlands at the back the area needs good drainage. The area measures 230 m2.

Thanks for the advice. I do speak very good Italian but I am struggling with some of the legal terms (I probably would in English too to be honest!) Can anyone recommend a good, resonably priced translation service as I would feel much more confident with the documents in English.
Thanks for that Penny. Useful information!
All contact details are on the website.
I am interested because they seem like a one stop shop which would be very helpful. Just thought the idea was good so that everything could be coordinated through one agency. I'm sure that will come at a price but am interested to know if anyone else has used them.
They are based in San Ginesio. Frequent contibutor to 'Italia' Magazine.
Thanks for all that information. It is certainly well worth knowing all that. I'm trying to arm myself with as much information about all these possible scams before embarking on the house hunt!
It all sounds like a bit of a mine field, but thanks for all the advice. Fore warned is fore armed!
Thanks. I can see what you are saying. The lowest price is actually the local estate agent from what I can gather. The 2 higher prices are from on line property services. This obviously something to be very watchful of!
Hi I'm really fortunate in that I grew up with an Italian mother so I don't have the problem of having to learn the language. However, one tip that I can give you is to start out by trying to get hold of some children's books, and I do mean starter reading books. (try Amazon)These will have really basic language and just work your way up from there. See if you can find the ones that have to do will general everyday situations , rather than fairy tales. I think you will find this will help. Hope so. Good luck!
Thanks for that very useful. I do speak Italian fortunately!
