Australian Aged Pension
When you say you are on a Vet's pension, I don't assume it, because you posted it. When you say you are on an old age pension, I don't assume it, because you posted it. Now, we all know you can't be on both pensions, so there's no assumption about me calling you out on it, and rather than explain it to members, or clarify your situation, your deflection is, "You are on my ignore list." -

It was not a long comment about you. I just pointed out that you have previously posted you are on a Vet's pension, and have also posted that you are on an old age pension. You can not be on both pensions, something that you still refuse to clarify. As far as money being deposited into a Thai bank account, show me where I mentioned it in my post. I know this happens. I have many GENUINE Vet friends here. That's how they get their pension here. It's no secret. -

Taylor Swift Donates $5 Million to Hurricane Relief Efforts
Exactly, and my guess is that it never even occurred to the cheapskate to donate money to help people in need. To call him stingy would be an insult to the stingy people of the world. He's way, way past that. -

Taylor Swift Donates $5 Million to Hurricane Relief Efforts
Because the numskull has gone out of his way to make her an enemy, because he can't handle criticism, he's so soft, and so weak and so pathetically insecure, that if someone says one unkind things about him he completely unravels. That's why we're mentioning her, that's why we're comparing the two. -

Hardly. I have already have many consultations with my accountant about restructuring my finances to qualify for the aged pension when the time comes. Nothing illegal. After years of working and paying a lot of tax, I have no problem admitting I feel some sense of entitlement. I may jump on the "free money" band wagon in the future. What you refuse to even consider, is the possibility of the "free money" being 30% less than in the past, because you are not living in Australia, yet, post reasoning or links to suggest otherwise. -

Never posted such a thing. The proposed changes are still just that, proposed, but the previous Liberal government had them drafted, which you would only do if serious about it, and the current Labor government is still running with them. They were never "binned" nor voted against when put to parliament. This means, when either party does eventually put them to parliament, they will have bipartisan support, so will sail through and be legislated. Your joke about an international task force was just that, an narrow minded joke. Nothing international about it, except for the geographic location of a non resident for tax purposes, which is outside of Australia for 183 days. Computer data bases will do it all. Interpol is not going to knock on your door in Thailand and hand you a tax bill, if that's the joke you are cracking. In the same way supplements are cut off after 6 weeks, even though you didn't tell Centerlink you are going overseas, what makes you think they can not / will not take a 30% non resident slice of the pension? Where do you get the confidence from that it will NEVER happen? Post some links. The pension is not protected under any laws from non resident tax. If it is, post the links. -

Illegal land occupation
LMFAO!! I'm surprised that it's taken till now for some clueless social media critic to open their big mouth. Save your comments for something where you actually know something. -

Illegal land occupation
The lawyer apparently is close with the police and suggests it will not be a problem to have them come in once it's gone through the courts. We will see if that is talk. The occupant owns 3 adjacent subplots, so it's not like he will be destitute. -

Thai High-Risk Groups Urged to Get Covid-19 Boosters
EIGHT. Is your mother Chinese? 8 is a very lucky number, in Chinese culture. I have great respect for your mother, or anyone, who can have eight jabs, and still ask for a ninth. I see nothing wrong with this....as long as these shots are FREE. After all, somebody needs to be test subjects. In the past, drug companies once used PRISONERS for testing drugs. Now, they just use the general population, which is US.... I really do not care...because.... I have suffered no ill-effects. Even if I did suffer ill-effects, I would not complain because...... Our world is deteriorating so fast that.....any shortening of my lifespan.... Would be seen by me as.... A positive side-effect. No worries. -

So, now not only are you personally attacking me, but also the Mods. What forum rules have I breached? By all means, put me on "ignore." I have actually requested members to do so in the past. It allows those who want to discuss what very well may be the single biggest issue facing Aussie expat pensioners in decades, and you want to shut down the discussion because it's too painful to even consider the possibility of losing 30% of your pension. No one wants to read about the possibility that their government is going to start taxing them, or tax them more. The solution on this forum was to shoot the messenger, which was me. Every possible reason for why it would never happen was put forward by members. Reasons ranged from "That's just for guys like Paul Hogan" to "I still have a Medicare Card so I am still a tax resident." There was also, "Albo and the new Labor government would never do it." Everyone was looking for reasons why it would not happen, whilst they should have been looking at reasons why it could happen. Of course, links were posted, from credible sources, many of them government websites, and not just from myself, but also others, that showed the main issues. They are, and continue to be, if you are outside of Australia for 183 days, you will be deemed a non resident for tax purposes. There is no tax free threshold in the non resident tax brackets. The pension is deemed to be an income. The pension is taxable. There is no exemption for old age pensions in the proposed changes. The DTA covers "Government Pensions" and an old age Centerlink pension is not a government service pension. Tell me what is incorrect with these issues, and provide some links. The DTA got put forward, which has also been shown that there are still reasons to be concerned. Still, the personal attacks and trolling not only continued, but many jumped on the band wagon, like teenage sheeples on social media. It's the members, such as yourself, and posts like this one, that ruins a thread. Do everyone a favor and place me on ignore. There are many members that want to give some consideration, and discuss options, surrounding the proposed changes to non resident tax. Indeed, one small loop hole seems to be doing 46 days in Australia every 3 years. This was discussed, even while members such as yourself continued to be in denial. Posts like yours offer zero content to the forum. What do you think should be discussed? Portability? It's been done to death. Anything else? How about the phone number for Centerlink from overseas. Important information that. For me, the funny thing is, Thailand appears to soon be enforcing the physical presence and time based tax resident model. Many members who personally attack me accept this from Thailand, but in no way do they accept Australia implementing the same in the near future. It's laughable. Really, it can be summed up very simply. Aussie expat pensioners want to remain a tax resident of Australia to avail themselves of the tax free threshold, whilst living in Thailand full time, yet no member has put forward how they are going to get around immigration knowing they are outside of Australia for 183 days a year, thus, a non resident for tax purposes. Many pensioners believe, or need to believe, they, and their pension, are a protected species. Where does this idea come from? It's certainly not in the laws. -
