  1. When I checked the Canadian website, it looks like the original poster qualified based on a medical condition. Since that's a listed requirement, it means many of us, myself included, wouldn't be eligible. I'm not interested in taking irrelevant courses or going through intense kicking in the stomach training Muay Thai just to meet a qualification.
  2. The way it works is that Taxman has the final say. Not me, not the internet. You need to hire a UK accountant. The problem is your employer probably has a system in place and does not care where you live. They are very likely to report you to taxman as a British citizen. Actually they already did. How else would they be able to claim their expenses? Hire the accountant like I did when I was out of Canada for 12 years. You being out of UK for 5 years does not mean you don't have to pay tax.
  3. I don't think you get it. Even as a non resident you will pay tax on UK income. Same if you had a property in UK and lived in Thailand. You would pay a non resident tax to UK. Its a British company so you are screwed. You'll probably be taxed at higher rates than non residents.
  4. These expats in Thailand, frankly, they're a total disgrace, a complete disaster, believe me! They leave their home countries, right? They're always whining, "Oh, it's gone woke, too expensive, too many people." Sad! But then they go to Thailand, and what do they do? They recreate the exact problems they ran from! It's incredible, nobody's ever seen anything like it. They sit in these little bars, complaining, always complaining, about Thailand, a beautiful country, by the way, while still dreaming about the place they couldn't wait to abandon. Some of them, they even voted for Brexit, good for them, but then they act shocked when their visas expire and nobody, nobody, rolls out the red carpet. They thought they were so smart! They talk about "cheap healthcare," but they have no idea what's really happening. It's a sham! They mock the roads, the drivers, but they're the ones on motorcycles, no license, totally unsafe, causing big problems. And many of them, they're just there for the cheap beer and the not-so-good industries. It's not something you'd talk about back home, believe me. They can't even speak the language, not a word, can't read a menu, but they're suddenly experts on Thai politics. It's a joke! They don't want to be called immigrants, oh no, they're "investors" or "digital nomads." It's ridiculous! They think they're doing Thailand a big favor, but they're costing the country a fortune with their bad habits and always needing things. They don't even like Thai food, it's too spicy, too weird for them. And the way they dress? Terrible! Like they just rolled out of a very bad tent. They sweat a lot, a tremendous amount of sweat, but they don't even bother with basic hygiene. It's really, really bad. The truth is, they're loud, they're uninformed, they're entitled, and they are, plain and simple, the problem. They left their countries calling them broken, and now they sit in Thailand, a beautiful place, complaining about the locals, totally, completely oblivious that they are the ones who are broken. It's a very sad situation, a very sad situation indeed.
  5. Went to the website. Chiang Mai comes to impressive second place and Bangkok 4th place in worldwide rankings. Wonder why Pattaya isnt mentioned. It certainly has many wonders, like Tiffanys and Alice Wonder to name a few.
  6. Jedi Trudeau and Carney Organa join forces against he evil Sith Lord Darth Donald
  7. What's the difference between Isaan and Chiang Mai? Probably nothing.
  8. Yet here you are. Booooo
  9. I gently reminded my wife she was overdue for her 90-day permanent resident report, adding with a straight face that the Canadian government might be getting a little antsy about her skipped duties. Then, just to seal the deal, I mentioned the crucial need for the original marriage certificate. The ensuing panic and accusations about my lack of foresight were exactly what I was expecting. She is obviously in the panic mode How long should I keep this going?
  10. I'm bald
  11. What are you yapping about? Both quality real estate and quality education is a lot more expensive in Thailand than UK. Forget about quality healthcare.
  12. Saying proudly Canadian while bashing canada makes you a liar. In any case Canadians invented a lot more than thais, yet you live in thailand. Are you also a proud Thai person?
  13. This will blow your brains out, so hold on to your bargirl. That's just Americans trying to blend in so hard they look like a walking maple leaf scared of being assaulted or kidnapped. This has literally been happening since I was born.
  14. You may get assaulted with maple syrup 🍁 Elbows up! https://www.msn.com/en-ca/travel/news/u-s-issues-travel-warning-for-canada/ar-AA1IBlwT?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=f7733003815c44b494e7653b1c4c0c00&ei=20&fbclid=IwY2xjawLiisJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHshvQ0IAxiapWaHWvHELbCOqOKKGIPaWrJcH2WBww3b4zt5gSSaHdBfnfcZo_aem_KGCMkELgiheQJHbi4axjzA
  15.

  16. Wow.....what a story! And no.... I don't think anyone else has been through anything like this especially in Thailand. What a story to tell your grandkids, wow Have you heard my story about bumgun? That's another story i like to tell my mates none of them believes such a device exists
  17. Yes, it is one of those lies continuously perpetuated by Asean Now "community". My wife took this and that from me is the usual whine. Maybe she did because you were shaking up with the same kind of losers you are dating in Thailand....lazy, uneducated and utterly useless. The only skill they probably had was one for the streets.
  18. This is how butthurt poors do math and reply. I remember you questioning me if my wife had a PR and if she received a 400k baht severance package after working for 1 year. Thanks for playing.
  19. I was never on retirement extension, but nice try.
  20. 1000×1000 baht. No wonder many don't have funds for retirement extension.
  21. Went to Asics Thailand website which took about 2 seconds and have plenty of shoes available. Man this forum gets dumber by the day.
