Musk targets Social Security with blatant misinformation
Thank you for your pontifications. I would disagree with this one " The easiest thing to do is to restrict or reduce social security benefits for non residents". There are a relatively small number of non-residents receiving benefits: " more than 760,000 people receive Social Security benefits while living abroad" each year out of about 51,772,000 receiving benefits. So you are going after a minority who you probably see as vulnerable rather than looking to actually solve the funding problem. The easiest and most effective would be to remove this limit: "there is a limit on the amount of your earnings that is taxable by Social Security. This amount is known as the “maximum taxable earnings” and changes each year." This limit, essentially a kickback to high income individuals, is unjustifiable and would actually result in a significant addition to the Social Security fund. Your snobbish attitude is so apparent, referring to the " the trailer park and age 50-60 group", one can't really take your opinions seriously. -

Trip to Khon Kaen income tax office
Hi I don't know if this has been reported before but I went to see if I could submit a Thai tax return or get a notice from them that I was exempt yesterday in Khon Kaen , I had what I thought would be a water tight case having all the documents I'd printed out from my HMRC account to show I'd paid the relevant income tax and capital gains tax for the tax years 2023and 2024 , and that the money I'd brought in was earned / acquired in 2023. Very nice lady we have seen before informed me that they were only accepting Certified copies of UK tax notices to prove what you have paid , this came as a surprise to me as I'd not heard this before . Has anyone else encountered this and more importantly ever got a certified notice from HMRC? I said I could bring in my Tablet or Laptop and show them on my account the relevant documents but she didn't seem interested in that just having certified copies. She also said they had taken small payments off various nationalities who had been to submit a return to simplify the issue and basically write off that money to save the hassle, she also mentioned some countries I think she mentioned Norway in particular were allowing their citizens to claim back payments they'd made to the Thai tax authorities to avoid double taxation but I got the impression off her they could get their pension /income gross , maybe I misinterpreted what she was telling me but it didn't seem relevant to my case anyway . She finished off by saying leave the situation to settle down until they sort out what they are actually doing , so I thought yes i'll keep an eye on it too and not bother trying to prove it to them ,then as we were leaving she said you've got six weeks until the return has to be filed ! So where do we go from here ? the clock is still ticking .....
