I’m very clear on residency and the changes tabled to Parliament. All I’ll say is, don’t get burnt by the ATO. Many comments here seem to have no clue on residency complexities.

If you are a pilot flying in the USA, and in Australia you have 300,000 AUD per annum of passive income from property and shares, will the IRS tax you? If you contributed to your Super will they tax you? Yes, you need expert help, however, every tax expert is different. Interested if anyone facing this scenario? Ex-Cathay pilots come to mind who have set up for retirement and can’t resist the lure of the States to finish it all off. If you do get taxed it could make going to the States a mistake.
