My father, Ruben Ricketts, left his home in Belize, 1940s, and emigrated to Edinburgh, Scotland. He was among the men who were invited to go the UK by the UK government to take up employment and fill the job vacancies after WWII ended. He married my Mum, a Scottish lady, and together, they had four children, of which I am one.

Hey Will Very informative video. Really enjoyed hearing first hand from the people that are implementing the new policies ( might be checking into the investment qrp). It’s so important for any investment especially by the government to make things happen vs. letting it happen. The momentum and trajectory is there. Keep up the exciting changes, growing at a planned , well thought out growth rate. Ps Hopefully will be back enjoying a great meal soon at the new pool club

Great video Will! Glad to see Belize progressing in a very positive way. It's nice to hear that with the amendments to the QRP that retirees can now find employment - at least for part time. I just hope that this doesn't take away employment opportunities for local residents. However, seeing how fast Ambergris Caye is growing this shouldn't be an issue. My fear for the island is that it will get too overpopulated and be like Aruba or other like islands. I know last time I visited one of our dive guides stated they keep raising the number of floors that a building/hotel can be. One thing I fell in love with Ambergris Caye is that it wasn't overpopulated and still had that small island culture. I hope that greed doesn't go too far and turns this beautiful island into a commercialized location....if you know what I mean :). Guess we will have to hope for the best!

What specifically must be the source of regular income that a Canadian or American retiree can show to obtain the QRP residency, and what is required to keep the residency active, including living in the country? As an alternative, can a snowbird easily find a place to live for a few months a year, especially in the San Pedro region?

@@meginbelize I’m not sure. I know if you don’t do the nomad program you still have to pay the fee every month. But I’m not sure if it’s a time limit on the stay. But I also wonder if you leave cross boarders. Then just come back does that count as leaving or do you physically have to fly out.

Not sure if this would be the best path on that. You would likely have to pay duties if you don't qualify for this program unfortunately. I would personally sell as much as possible then purchase in Belize but it really depends on the items as most everything is taxed at different rates.
