  1. That's not how the system.works. It's based on Thai tax residents doing a self assessment. I have done so and know I don't need to file but will at a future year. It's entirely dependent on your individual case.
  2. You're misinformed. That is not what having a dta means.
  3. Sure but he was given misinformation.
  4. You can do that but it might bite you later if audited depending on the specific details of your case.
  5. Also taxed in Thailand so you get credits. Roth IRAs are not taxed in the US but are taxed in Thailand.
  6. Update on Panda where I can't use my BB mc or Kbank visa debit cards and they restrict True Money to Thais. To join or renew the Panda Pro status which gets various discounts they have very recently added the option of joining that with Add To Cart when placing any order. So that helps me as I now only have the cash option with Panda although I have learned you can pay cash orders by scanning driver QR code from your banking apps.
  7. They're old now. They're on record as not being Trump fans. But disco era Trump is a fan of theirs. So obviously doing this brings them a lot of money and also greatly enhances their historical legacy. Most humans couldn't resist such easily gained benefits. YMCA is a gay anthrm but it's a relic. The Trump maga fascist movement represents going backwards in LGBT civil rights. They hope to reverse marriage equality just as they killed federal abortion rights. It's already started in Idaho. No doubt it will be revisited by the far right supreme court. A key part of their campaign was about scapegoating trans people. So can't approve of them playing this event but understand why they couldn't resist
  8. I wad replying to members speaking off Australia specific.
  9. Just one example. You need to check the dta if any for your country.
  10. Yes. Garland's performance as AG was very pathetic.
  11. I have no reason to think that Merrick Garland wouldn't have made a good supreme court justice. But as the Attorney General during Biden's term, his actions, more like his absurdly delayed actions, set the table for the reemergence of the disaster soon to be inaugurated January 20. He was appointed as a consolation prize for having had his seat on the court stolen from him. I understand the emotion behind that -- but what a massive historic mistake. The USA and the world will pay a very big price for the milquetoast behavior of Merrick Garland.
  12. Not inclusive. Dividends. Capital gains on investments. Rental income. Pensions not excluded by DTAs (for example U.S. IRA accounts)
  13. You're forgetting who we're dealing with here with Donald Trump. Projecting normal predictable responses to him our adjudicated rapist twice impeached convicted multiple felon insurrectionist prez elect doesn't wash. To me, that climate change as a scam narrative is completely insane.
  14. Leader of the free world or leader of the autocratic world? His greatest global fans are dictators and fascists.
  15. Not saying it's news. It's comedic commentary that quite often is spot on.
  16. Imagine if the BIG ONE (great California earthquake) happens under the Trump regime. Their sickening divisive cruel bigotted unpatriotic response to these fires is a dark foreshadowing.
  17. Unfortunately can't post it here. but for an entertaining commentary on the outrageousness (and total HYPOPRICY) of the maga response to this fire disaster, I do suggest watching the latest Jon Stewart Daily Show item about the issue.
  18. To be clear I am not saying this fire disaster is a matter of one factor. It's a matter of many complex factors including climate change, population increases in high risk area, and all kinds of efforts successful and not successful of mitigation attempts by policies and actions. What I do know for a fact that the current maga effort to blame this on some officials being black, some officials being lesbian, and a government being dominated by democrats in a region dominated by democratic voters, and calls for cutting off federal DISASTER aid unless politically motivated "conditions" are met is incredibly stupid and incredibly wrong. Trump talks about annexing Canada. I wouldn't blame Californians after these outrageous insults and threats from federal maga and zero compassion while so many Californians are actively fighting for their homes and their lives (but lets do the BLAME GAME instead) to start to look into joining Canada (ideally including Oregon and Washington to make it geographically coherent).
  19. Vexler is correct. It's a waste of time "debating" with man made climate change deniers. The same as it's a waste of time debating with flat earthers.
  20. So he didn't even ask you what were the specific sources of your outside Thailand income remitted to Thailand? I'm sure others have heard such things but I would be skeptical because we know for a fact that some types of income remitted to Thailand definitely are taxable in Thailand. But that's different than an office saying and following through on having no interest in ENFORCING that. Kind of joking but I guess it would have been rude to ask him to give you a signed document to the effect of what he said.
  21. I'm going with Vlad Vexler. It's idiocy to even bother to engage with man made climate change deniers. But he's polite about it. I consider such people total morons.
