The supposed collapse of the AUD isn't a thing.
It's the rise of the USD, which as I predicted, has turned around.
Up 4 cents in two weeks, with more to come.

My mother has a propensity to imagine something, not do any research, and then decide that it's fact.
This also seems prevalent amongst posters in this thread.

I just spent 9 weeks there.
Makati, Dauin, Dumaguete, Bacolod, Iloilo, Pasay, Subic / Olongapo / Barrio, Makati.
No problems, but begging kids probably need to be watched.
I don't put anything in my pockets.

Lines pretty much anywhere are a result of poor management, poor planning, or laziness.

This is an area which is very vague, there are AFAIK 4 basic tests of tax residency.
If the ATO decides you are NOT a tax resident, good luck with trying to change that decision.
4 tests, yes, but you dont have to 'pass' them all to remain tax resident.
You can be tax resident without setting foot in the country for many years, like me.

Return to Australia within every 183 days so you can continue to claim you are an Australian resident for tax purposes.
Not a thing. You don't have to do that at all to remain tax resident.

So many opinions, which are simply wrong.
Oh well. It's the way of the world.

On the topic of driving license, is it possible to renew the 5 year license early? As in 3.5 years early?

I just came here to read the comments, and I wasn't disappointed.
From those that evidently have the reading skills of a 4 year old village kid, to the standard 'I see better in 7 Eleven' and 'ladyboy' jibes.
Perhaps future similar comments on pageants should include pics of the commenters current or most recent squeeze. ????

And the problem for me is I have been out of the country over 2 years (8 years actually) and don't own property so I am a "non resident for tax purposes"....which means any tax I need to pay is at the full rate...as if I were a foreigner. I have been assured though should I wait until 60yo there will be no tax.
You don't automatically become tax non-resident. It's a process you have to go through, which often ends up being financially detrimental.
Having asked the ATO the question on non-residency vs over 60 tax just recently, they said that you will be taxed as a non-resident firstly (ie 32.5% on every dollar, no tax free threshold) and then get a tax offset of 10% on the tax liability.
If on a pension, that is quite the loss.
My thoughts on your bigger picture.
Cash out all your super and quickly put it into something that will at least hold some value.
Money in the bank (or super) is losing value every day, and will continue to do so.
Precious metals would be the leading solution, and it's a good buyers market now.

Check with a cheap sim from the same operator.
It really depends on where you live.
With a condo, there may be vast differences in speed depending upon which side you are and also how high.

I wonder when they will wake up and realise that people want to get to and from DMK to the family friendly resort without mucking about for several hours.

This is one of the stupid things about not allowing foreigners to own real estate.
I, probably like many of you, have seen run down buildings with great potential, but we aren't allowed to realise that potential.
Thai's, so I understand, believe all the value is in the land. Buildings are nothing, so to speak.

Such a shame to see these poor hawkers and vendors ruined by digital technology. What is the government doing to help them replace the lost income?
They will be fine. Purchasers will still want to stand in front of the tickets, waiting to be magically drawn to one.

Hold on a minuite. The way I read the OP is that when he returns to Thailand his OA insurance will have finished? Thats why he is looking for 2 months insurance and then take out a new 12 month OA insurance when he renews his extension of stay? Correct me if I am wrong.
That's correct jimn.
When he arrives he will have no OA insurance so he will not be stamped in to the expiry date of his stamp, so all he will get is a 30 day visa exempt entry and his OA is cancelled.
But if IO at swampy isn't checking, as per the rules in ubonjoe's replies, then it's all good.
I have other insurance in the meantime, just not a TGIA robbers version.

Everyone making negative comments on the looks of these girls should have to post a pic of themselves and their wife / gf with their post, just by way of comparison.
If no partner, please include your mother's basement as the background.
