Shayne Rochford... I am quite caplable of reading plane English, All we need to work on is to get Thailand to wite what is now facts and not beat around the bush. If there are exceptons we can just read what they say and implement it??
In my case and about 2,000,000 0thers living in Thailand do not pay any tax on their pensions in their home country. I seems to me as it is written those people will be liable to pay the full amount of tax in Thailand as a tax resident, my case $1000. Some modifcation my occur but Thailand does know now what they are doing. Cambodia or the Philipines also for
***
months may be the answer and back for 179 days to Thailand, good for a single man, that would do the trick.????
To Jeff Schott and others...My Australian Aged Pension (AAP) is $
*****
P/Y if living in Thailand and the extra $15,000 per year is from a retirement fund it is all tax-free in Australia. Will I have to pay tax in Thailand? I've asked this question on a dozen different sites. To date, no one has given me an answer. At 82 y/o I am not even required to put in a tax return. The ATO (tax office) in Australia excuses me for doing so. In Australia, I am below the tax threshold.
Yes, Phil...I got banned for life for correcting them regarding the Australian Aged Pension's advice. They claimed I was abusive which was not true but just facts as stated on Centrelink's website. But they don't like being corrected even if they are wrong. Their advice was way incorrect. I'm not a bit sorry, I'm now banned. (Forever) Amen.
I've been doing that for years. For me, as I also own a nice house in my hometown, it is just as cheap to live in Australia and travel at will. Even for govt pension recipients like me.
I only explain in more detail what is contained in Centrelink's Australian website regarding Australian Aged Pension details (AAP) and taxation details also contained in the Australian AAP. i.e. work bonuses. married rates, assets and income levels, tax offset, residency for the required approval etc. etc. Often when people understand if they qualify or not to get the AAP, they get disgruntled and angry. It's still the same old story, it never ends day in and day out?
PS Thai visa has not accepted my explanation for my ban. They may consider correcting them when they are wrong is defamation in Thailand...TIT.
I got banned from Thai Visa for telling them of advice mistakes in their advice about the Australian Aged Pension. (AAP) of which I am very well informed. I was polite but correcting their statements was not permitted. yes, so I got banned...that is their problem They have now changed their name to "Asian something or other"...best of luck.😏🥰🤣.
...I am one of the 60% of people in Australia who are not computer savvy. Even the ACCC a government watchdog in Australia has advised all companies that only 37% of people are computer-competent. Yet businesses, all over the world continue to require all people to be computer experts. It took me all day to book an airfare on Scoot Airlines and I am still not confident after paying $450 if I really do have a ticket and did I pay the right price. perhaps it is my fault? Communication with online companies is almost impossible nowadays even when using plain English, Searching for accommodation online is a skill on its own, even for people with some computer skills, most companies only tell half the truth with their claim to be ready to book accommodation for you and airline companies are worse, scams are everywhere! I'm good with Photoshop and Publisher as I used those programs in my previous business. Nowadays all people are expected to be rocket scientists or brain surgeons just to be able to use a mobile phone. "Daily transaction, depreciation schedules, profit and loss results, bank balance record of payments, business journals" and many other business and social matters. This lack of commitment is starting to haunt business and can't be stopped. The old saying "necessity is the mother of invention" We may need to resort to in future. There's all too much information required. Make it simple keep it simple.
...TIT ...this is Thailand. It is not a good idea to criticise Thailand while living there. They call it defamation. Under Thai law, it is a crime. i.e. if you criticise someone for driving on the road stupidly and shout out "You are a maniac" you can be arrested for defamation. Things are a bit different in Thailand...get used to it. LOS.
