Let's ask Lucy
Banks want to sell me a mortgage. Where does the Dutch government explain rules, costs, and schemes like NHG?
I am confused about deadlines and what the basic package (basisverzekering) covers. I want official sources, not insurer marketing only.
Ages, language support, international vs Dutch schools — where is the official explanation so I can plan ahead?
I need daycare or after-school care. Are there official benefits (e.g. childcare allowance) or registers I should check before I sign a contract?
Paying an accountant is hard right now. I heard some places offer free basic legal or tax orientation — what exists here and what can they realistically help with?
Listings disappear fast. I am not sure which sites are trustworthy, what documents Dutch landlords expect, or how to avoid deposit scams.
Everything hits at once: registering with the municipality, BSN, health insurance, and a roof over my head. I do not want to miss a Dutch deadline because I did not know the right order of steps.
