What I do is build a GregorianCalendar using the user's local

GregorianCalendar, then construct a new date using GMT.
new NSTimestamp(date) does the same thing (assuming you've used a
formatter in the user's timezone) :-)
When I take that date out of the database, I use a date formatter
set to GMT, and I always get the date the user input, regardless of
what timezone they were in.
Again, NSTimestamp is already GMT unless you're saying you're using a
different column type.
