Use Kotak, I found it best for Xfer from India to US, next is ICICI.
Never did Hdfc

I just made the transfer and got this recently. Assume you have the money in a savings resident account? Contact HDFC to change it to NRO. And open another NRE account in parallel. You need to get your CA to get Form 15CB (no objection letter) and will permit your bank to move funds to NRE. Once it's in NRE, you can transfer use 'Remittances' section of HDFC at current rates. Would recommend keeping it in HDFC and moving it to NRE, instead of transferring to another bank.

A1, the whole process would take 10-15 days.
Use Kotak that’s best.

@b1 : any quicklink for KOTAK transfer ?

Kotak.remit.in

@b1 thanks

@b1 : awesome this works like a magic !

Cool....I knew it.
What rate you got?

65.12

I am going to gross above the 2022 Roth limit, but my MAGI will bring me below the limit based on my maxing out of 401k. I am also expecting to receive 2 bonuses this year, one for $8k and another for a yet to be determined amount. Basically, I am right on the edge of the threshold and it is making planning confusing. Anyone encounter this before? How’d you gauge your contribution for the year? Or is it best to just wait until next April and pull the trigger then so you don’t over contribute?

My firm has ~50 attorneys and is the best in the field. all decisions are made by one man, eg bonuses, raises, promotions. There is no transparency. The only objective measure might have been billing. The billing requirement is 1900/ yr, but a total of ~200 hours are no-charged automatically, and he goes after closing the case and no charges hours based on factors unknown. The result is that no one can track their own billables, and the criteria for bonuses are a mystery. Is this normal?
