You have to admit it is very convincing.

 

Question - for what purpose?

There's an Australian guy living long term in Chiang Mai who is officially authorized to countersign many documents from numerous Australian Gov't agencies and non government entities. I've used his service several times, accepted (in my case) by C'Link, the Oz DVA, Oz banks. 

 

He won't accept any payment or gifts.

 

You need to contact him and make an appointment (last time I met him at a coffee shop inside Big C Extra on the superhighway).

 

PM to me if you want his name and contact details.

The Honorary Consulate in Chiang Mai closed in 2023.

Clearly clickbait as RJ has said, clear your browser, its full of similar sites once you show some interest in OAP issues.

Here is another that popped up on my Google just this morning.

This appeared on Mygov today!

Video only 12 days old. 

 

It's an informative video, but 4:15 to 4:50 is relevant to expat pensioners.   

 

 

 

No where in the comments section does anyone say, "That's only for guys like Paul Hogan." 

[KhunHeineken]

Well explained.  Video 4 months old. 

 

He mentions doing 45 days a year in Australia to remain a resident of Australia for tax purposes. 

 

 

A lot of comments asking about taxing of the aged pension at non resident 30% rate.

Is the below "fake information?"  It's from the Australian Government Treasury Department.

Accounting firms, financial advisors, legal firms, tax experts etc have posted on their websites about it.  It's not "click bait" it's real, and in my opinion, will happen, particularly as the current laws are 90 years old.
