@Todd ********
His post spoke in general about ppl who insult others and have no manners.

He did not specify anyone.

Only someone who perpetrates the very things he spoke of could take offense.

🤔

@Christopher ************
I was only speaking about the U.S.

I agree that each country would have a different DTA.

@Ima***
EXACTLY!

Well said 👊🏻

I bet that hundreds of questions never get asked bc ppl don’t want to deal w a lecture or petty behavior.

A few bad apples can completely ruin a groups dynamic.

OK

@Lawrence ******
Thailand can obviously change anything they want within their own country, but I am unconcerned about them changing their side of the DTA.

Which would be the only way they could require taxes on remittances of retirement money that has already been taxed and falls within the DTA.

But I guess anything can happen 💁🏼‍♂️

@Sue *********
I am unfamiliar with other nations tax requirements.

I only have knowledge about U.S. regulations and the U.S. Thai DTA.

@Jim *******
You are correct.

SSA website confirms that tax returns are only filed for assessable income, not SS or retirement.
Don ******
From what I understand, no taxes have to be paid for retirement income transferred into Thailand because of the DTA with the U.S.

Example:

(railroad pension, military retirement, VA disability, SS…etc)

Plz advise if this information is incorrect.

Well at least u were nice and courteous with your response.

Not condescending at all.

What other things should curious people automatically know not to ask?
