Management couple

Your KITAP helps a lot because you can engage in part time, informal work legally WITHOUT a work permit.
No contracts and no full time work, and check in with immigration to make sure  they don't have any objections.
Manpower can take a running jump as they have nothing to do with KITAP holders doing informal work.
There's very little stopping you doing one off visits to local schools if that's your cup of tea.
If possible, your best bet is to try the homestay business as no one should bother you at all if you're working in your husband's place.

Hi Fred, thanks for taking the time to reply. I am aware of my legal rights with the KITAP, my question was more aimed at whether those types of jobs (couple management positions) are ones that come up on the Bali job market or not.
Unfortunately, the home stay business is unsustainable. We operate out of my in laws home, and as such the lions share of our income immediately goes to my husbands family. What is left gives us enough to buy basic necessities for our 10 month old (read: milk), and not much more. We can't up our rates because of the facilities, and we can't improve our facilities because we have no money. We have looked into other options (ie renting our own property and building up slowly) but have hit hurdles (no suitable properties locally, husbands family doesn't want us to take away their passive income..). Also, looking further ahead, schools locally are frankly crap. -not that we could actually afford to send her to one anyway at the moment. And there are so few expats living locally that she is already being singled out and treated differently, by everyone.
We are at a point of having to make changes for our little family, and I'm tentatively trying to figure out the right thing to do..
Any advice gratefully received,
Jen

Money can he earned legally by visiting local schools, that should net around Rp500,000 a day in poor areas. You should get a lot of work once you're known in the area, more so if there are hardly any white, English bule speaking around.
You'll need an outgoing personality and loads of confidence but not much more at first.
If a place asks you go go weekly, read the text books and work out how to teach the spoken word based on what's in them.
I can offer you  bunch of tips and practical stuff that'll help you out if you take that path.
It won't produce a regular income but it can get you out of a hole.

Hi Fred, sorry for taking so long to reply.
Yes, that sounds like a pretty good option, and I would be very grateful for any advice on how to go about it.
We won't be making the move for a few months what with getting everything sorted for the family to take over the business here, and all of the general organizational stuff that seems suddenly so much more important with a baby..!
In a way it's a blessing being able to take our time and plan, but we are both developing a pretty bad case of itchy feet..

Send me a private message with an email address and I'll send you a bunch of handy stuff.
If you're concerned about giving an email to a stranger, just create a new one and use that.
I keep an old address I use for forums and stuff I know will spam me (insurance companies and that sort of stuff) in the hope of keeping my real email address clear of all the rubbish.
