Nursing job in Dubai (UAE)
Let me try to answer a few of your questions: Rent is very expensive, however it is usually provided in your contract Age : Max age is 60 however most contracts are 1-2 yrs so 58 is the magic number Taxes: You claim it as foreign income which $85,000 is tax exempt. IRS has all the info. 330 days of employment is the magic number, not in a single tax year but in 12 cons months. IRS explains well this requirement. There are a few state side based companies that contract with most major hospitals I UAE. Just google. Hope this helps. Mike

Nights: Normal schedule on days off??
In my younger days after working 3-4 12 hr nights I'd stay up the next day, found that it was easier to get back onto a day schedule for the family. Now that i'm older, i need my sleep for a few hours. The day still seems to be a wash as I'm still tired and grumpy. If I only have a few days off, I just stay on my night schedule. I seem to function alot better.
