Thanks for the detailed info. Logging in from Thailand is important to me.

Thanks.

To follow up on this, my accountant in the USA told me that any tax that I end up paying to Thailand is deductible from the taxes I pay in the USA. So for some paying here and deducting from your home country might just be a wash. YMMV

Sounds to me like you are giving advice.

Are you transferring money from the USA to Thailand directly? I cannot do this with US Bank. Maybe it is because I'm not a premium account holder or something. Also, are you able to do this online from Thailand? I have an established Bangkok Bank account that I could transfer money into from the USA before the IAT format change.

Actually, I am looking for a Thai owned accounting service that I can pay to file my taxes.

Tomorrow might be a better day.

This calculation works only if your remittance in less than or equal to the amount deposited into the Thai bank. Some people will have remitted more than what is deposited into their bank accounts, and they will need to know what amount needs to be reported to TRD as exempt.

You still have to determine what amount is non-assessable.

To throw one more question into the mix: As a US citizen what is the value of my Social Security income for tax purposes in Thailand? Is it the gross income before the Medicare premiums are deducted, or the amount after Medicare premiums are deducted, which is then deposited into the bank.

I am not looking for information. I am looking for a Thai accounting service that files taxes for people.

The videos I have seen referenced are expat based services. I am looking for a Thai accounting service.

What little I read about this leaves me wondering why there is no mention of Thai accountants vying for this chunk of business. I have asked my friendly banker here in Chiang Mai if he knows of any Thai accountants that would file taxes for me and he looked at me kind of funny. Every other Thai I ask that I think might know doesn't know either. I'm guessing that the tax system for Thais is very simple compared to Western countries, so there is little need for individual tax filing assistance. But, I would think there would be a few Thai accountants that would like this business.

Thanks for the info. I assumed the nighttime dose was to balance things out, and that is what I'll do. I do trust him a LOT more than I trust search engines... 😁

Just finished a visit with the urologist yesterday. I have had BPH for a couple of years now and it is treated with DuoDart. Over the last few months urine flow has slowed a bit during the day, but at night the flow is very slow. Not even a stream. And it feels like there is an obstruction that I don't feel during the day. The doctor suggested I take another tamsulosin 0.4 at night. A quick search on Kagi and perplexiy said that was an uncommon dosing. Rather than 0.4 2 times per day the recommended dose is 0.8 once a day. Anyone here that does tamsulosin 0.4 2x per day? What are your results? In the evaluation the doctor said the prostate was enlarged but not terribly big and he did not recommend surgery. Personally I'd like to see what happens if I stop the dutasteride and if the prostate enlarges again then I would check out a UroLift procedure.
