QUOTE(ThanatosSwiftfire @ Jun 22 2016, 10:58 AM) Isit. I still feel pain leh when paying tax. No choice but to pay the taxes...Take an example: People with taxable earning of RM60,000 and SGD50,000.. in Malaysia - First RM50,000 is taxed at RM2,000 - Following RM10,000 is taxed at 16% = RM1,600 - Total is RM3,600 - which converted to be 6% on RM60,000 in Singapore - First SGD40,000 is taxed at SGD550 - Following SGD10,000 is taxed at 7% = SGD700 - Total is SGD 1,250 - which converted to be 2.5% on SGD50,000 |

QUOTE(Ultimaweapon @ Jun 22 2016, 09:56 AM) I've a few questions, hope I can get some advice on it:- Sorry can't really answer your previous questions... i think it is best to wait till you have the approval before commencing.4. What is a comfortable salary range for Malaysians working in SG? Is 4k acceptable? I mean, without spending much on luxuries. Btw, I've submitted almost 20+ resumes before landing this job recently. Good luck to job-seekers out there! Thanks!  with salary of SGD4,000 ... it is pretty comfortable without lavish spending... my experiences for occasion fine dining and normal meals cost only $800/month... the rest you just need to plan out... |

QUOTE(Ultimaweapon @ Jun 22 2016, 11:26 AM) That's what I intend to do, but I'm only worried if there's any repercussions... the sudden change in purchasing power will drive you into shopping spree...  Then SGD4k is ok I guess, not a lot but good enough...good to know  . Yeah probably still needs a good planning and budgeting.. i bought so many that end up not utilising it...  |

QUOTE(Ultimaweapon @ Jun 22 2016, 12:54 PM) A week, I see. Thanks for the insight. I guess the thing to do now is wait. Well, commonly is HDB Common Room or Master Room (with private bathroom)...rental varies according to areas...I was thinking of renting a private room but never thought of private bathroom. Private bathroom usually comes with master room right? How about wifi and mobile? Did they ask for deposit? Are we allowed to install Singapore's equivalent of Unifi at the rented room? Usually wifi will be provided together with room rental... else you may negotiate with the landlord...there's ISP provides contract free internet... Depends on your work permit... Telco may ask for deposit in some cases... If the unit is fiberoptic ready... you can install up to 8 internet services... sorry to say...Unifi equivalent??? nah...it's 100 times Unifi... |
