QUOTE(hvac @ May 29 2017, 09:25 PM) - as i understand residential address need to change. and if i put in JB address, tax will consider non tax resident. You think IRAS will give you such a huge loophole, stay in JB no need to pay SG tax?  Residency (physical address) and Tax Residency are two separate concepts. Go look up how IRAS defines tax residency.

He's just asking if put JB address but work in SG, they qualify as tax resident or non-resident. Non-resident rate is much higher. Like 20% iinm.

Those people I know who stay in JB I think they all borrow a friend or relative's singapore address, but I could be wrong. This post has been edited by deodorant: May 30 2017, 10:07 AM

QUOTE(hvac @ May 29 2017, 09:25 PM) Hi guys, I have few questions about IRAS tax: - 2013 to 2015 - i've started working in SG and staying in SG. - 2016 i moved to JB and commuting to SG in and out every weekday. - as i understand residential address need to change. and if i put in JB address, tax will consider non tax resident. 1. did other people usually put in SG address in IRAS tax, but they stay in JB? 2. Can i put in my last rental address in SG, is this wrong? Hopefully everybody can give input. Thank you. As long as you still work in Singapore for 183 days or more in a year, you will be treated as Tax resident.

Can. Depends on bank. Depends on which clinic you go, some within hours, some 1-2days some 1 week.

My amex application quite annoying. The lady ask me give even more details when i already gave her a copy of my NOA. In the end i didnt give, but somehow two weeks later i still got the card.

Choose a broker and open account lo, all major banks has this service but read up their service charges for buying and selling. You will then need a CDP account before you can trade. No cost before you start buying or selling. Singapore REIT return range from 5% to 9% per annum, of course not guarantee and you better keep an eye on news and their performance. join us here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2504121/+5060alternatively can buy Singapore Saving Bond, currently 2+ % per annum with a 10 years bond (Issued by Singapore Gov) http://www.sgs.gov.sg/savingsbonds.aspxlow rate (1%+) at the start then every year the rate increase but you can withdraw anytime without penalty. IMHO better than FD if you foresee you wont touch your money for years. This post has been edited by bearbear: Jun 1 2017, 12:11 PM
