As a former bean counter in a previous life I suggest you have a good look at the ATO web sight and see what the ATO use to determine your resident status for tax purposes. Just because one may own a house, has some Aussie shares and an Australian bank account most certainly doesn’t make them an Australian resident for tax purposes. If you also take a look at the ATO and Singapore IRD web sights you will see there is a very robust Taxation Treaty between Australia and Singapore so therefore you won’t be double taxed by Australia if you are a resident of Singapore for tax purposes.
