It's interesting that in the particular case above, an email would meet the definition of "in writing" (of course other leases would be worded differently). My take on it is that they lost because all of their communication prior to the cut-off date was very unclear and not because it was via email.

This is the bit that interests me. But I see your point about not being fully sovereign soil.

Except that under international law, an embassy is sovereign soil i.e. US soil in that case.

Consistently? I'd say the lotto. Although I do concede that it's not as fast.

The other thing with this card system (as with almost everything in the gambling world) casinos will be exempt. So...what's the point and what's going to change? If you make pokies illegal, gambling addicts will just move to another form of gambling or some other addictive behaviour,

I thought Recruit2 meant work "super hard" as in to work "very hard" to earn as much money as possible in the early years.

You can only claim deductions for properties that are available for rent. So while you are building a house on that land, even if it is an "investment" you will not be able to claim any of your costs. Instead all of your costs (including insurance, rates, etc) will be added to the cost of...

Isn't that the Residential Tenancies Act though and not commercial? Edit: Beaten by Propertunity.

Directors are excluded from Workers Comp insurance (at least in QLD).

It's was already early today, Bayview! Thanks for your posts mate. Fantastic read.

When you think about it, this is fair. i.e. if your daughter and her partner both worked and had some extra money left over. They put this extra money in a trust and then there was a separation. That money brought from the marriage should probably be part of the marriage. Note: I'm no...

September 1985 ;) Talking to your accountant though Tizzy, would be the best course of action. This can get complicated if they're a lot of shares as depending on when they were originally purchased, different decisions can be made which will effect you when/if you eventually sell them...

In short - no. In long - When people say that you are taxed at your marginal tax rate they mean that any net capital gains you make are added to your taxable income and treated, I guess you could say, as if you had a salary increase. This way you will be taxed up the marginal ladder - part at...

To answer your question re. amount of tax back: Your tax liability will be reduced by approx. $6,300.

He possibly would either way cause spouses are only allowed one PPOR between them (basically treated as though one person).

This is correct. Just make sure the terms are better or something so that you're not seeming like you're doing it for the sole purpose of obtaining a tax benefit. Oh and to the post before - You would only be able to claim the first 40%. The remaining 60% would be added to your costbase.

Welcome! You are able to claim a PORTION of the interest/water/rates etc. These expenses are usually apportioned on an floor area basis. These have to be apportioned between rooms which are only used by you or the renter (bedroom) and rooms which are shared between you (loungeroom)...
