Does Banks have access to ATO tax records

To be honest i don't claim any benefit. I don't born here in Australia and my mentality is difference (i don't relied one anyone or government). I am lucky because i got a huge inheritance from my late partner (never dream to have one always work hard for my independence). I had a lot of money in my bank (from the investment that i sold last year). Do you think i qualify for benefit. I know people in 3rd world country live hard life. When i am in Melbourne i live normal and i don't like living luxury. I spend my own money and plus guys love to buy cloth and take me out for meal, so I have donated more than 6K to charity last year. I will keep donating my cash money to charity. I do claim that donate money to the tax office for my income purpose deduction. Because i have rental income last year.

By the way confidential about my identity.

I feel like i am retiring now. Nude modeling just a hobby for me I don't need to work, i am not desperate, that why i didn't work since May last year and my boyfriend quit his job too. He rely on me. And with the money in the bank my boyfriend and i can live forever without working...

This is very interesting. Pretty, people are really trying to protect you here by advising that you declare your income. You will make a bad situation worse by trying to apply for a government benefit. I would be extremely surprised if the ATO is not aware of you already with all the cash coming in to the country. I suggest you get a good accountant who can help you structure your affairs to minimise the tax you pay. However, please have a think about the danger you're putting yourself in. Is it worth going to jail? Yes, this can really happen in Australia and it does. At the very least you can get a permanent criminal conviction against your name and have to pay a lot more money in fines.
You have said that you have more than enough money anyway, so it's not as if paying your taxes would leave you destitute. You're in a fortunate position compared with many people even in Australia, let alone your own country. Don't let greed get the better of you.

but i think if i don't expose my self to the world and meet guys, i don't feel myself. May be is a obsession that i have
At least you have recognised this. I don't think it's uncommon with very attractive women. You have got your sense of value by how attractive you are to men and your power is to get attention from them. It's understandable and quite addictive. But we both know that it cannot last forever. You need to find some other way of establishing your self worth. Maybe you can do that with investment?
 
Hmmmm....very sad indeed....

Your situation is unfortunate....you might have the money....but you are heading down the path of criminality.

No offence but your lifestyle and views on tax might eventually put you in front of the courts....maybe even in jail.......

Your obsession with your looks maybe your undoing...particularly if over time like everyone you are not so perfect anymore. Have you considered what you will do?

Incidently.....you are on a public forum. Did you know that the authorities can easily track you down if they wanted to via oyur IP address or email address?

I am on holiday now, so i am using a hotel computer. As long as i don't bring back the money into Australia, that will be alright. Aussie that work oversea such as Dubai, they have tax exemption in Australia. I got UK citizenship (dual citizenship). I don't really need to live here permanently. I will open an oversea account for my money that i earn oversea.

By the way i said cloth not bra, i never buy bra, men love buying bra for girls. And i have a lot of them I just buy cloth which men have no taste at all if they buy cloth for me.

I did consult with my accountant in London last year, i got a good advise, just bore and in this forum just to ask question, that all. And i got a permanent partner. I have a stable relationship.

And at this moment i am not doing anything criminal. At the previous message i wrote that i did pay the tax for the last year, but in the future, i will keep the money oversea i can access it anytime at any where.
 
Pretty,

I hope your boyfriend is not letting you pay for everything & taking advantage of you.

Just be really careful if you are living together for a certain amount of time here in Australia & he wants to leave you, he could take a considerable amount of your money with him. By this, I mean the courts could award him maybe up to half your assets/money if they deem you to be a defacto couple.

I only say this b/c an ex has actually said to me "You realise I can take y ou for half don't you?"....this scared me witless as I had worked hard for most of what I had & he had nothing.

Just trying to look out for you as you seem to have a generous heart.
 
Thanks Mary&Mat for your care, yeah, i did have a pre-up done few month ago, and he know that i done a will too. If i die under the knife next month he will get the house that he is living and everything will go to the charity. I have a few life insurance, one will go for him and the rest will go to charity. But if he leave me while i am alive, he will get nothing.
Yeah i try to ask him to go back to work after we come back from Thailand for my surgery. He basically living out of me.
 
That's good to know you've protected yourself Pretty!

It's up to individual choice but, if you're beautiful now, I believe you don't need surgery. There are so many older women who's beauty appreciates with age, like Helen Mirren for instance.

If there is beauty in the inside, it will shine out.

I think surgery preys on peoples' insecurities, plus it's always dangerous having any sort of operation. Why have one when it's not a life-threatening disease etc?

I'm sure you'll find a partner that will love & value you for what's on the inside. We're all going to get old & sag & have lines. These are a testament to a life well-lived.

Plus, I always find faces that haven't been surgically tampered with much more appealing than those whose foreheads no longer move.

Hope that wasn't too lecture-like. I just worry for people that do this. Is there an underlying insecurity that could be dealt with some way other than surgery?

I'd find my face/body scary if it was changed by someone else's hand through cosmetic surgery. I love the lines & blotches & imperfections that make me me.

But if you're still going to do it, all the best, I hope it works out for you :)
 
Thanks for advice mary&mat, yeah i know a lot of my friend said that i am so attractive and why i need to do this. But to be honest i have 7 procedure done in 2009. 3 separate operation. That why i got this attractive look (i do have natural great look before all this operation). Even men that i know they try to stop me. But i am so obsess with cosmetic surgery, and i know is just all about my head. Not insecurity. My boyfriend do stop me doing this too. But this time i promise my self (always did promise but never do) is the last one, and the most extreme one. I got 6 procedure in one go operation.

My boyfriend do love me a lot. I don't simply have a permanent boyfriend if they are ****. He is very genuine.

Wow - that's a lot of operations!

Glad you realise it's in your head...you do sound like a smart woman.

Can you get the proceedure done in australia where it may be a bit safer & if there's any problems, your surgeon is right here, not in another country?

Just heard a few dodgy dental proceedures & operations done overseas can have problems later on with infections etc.
 
Most of my surgery done with that doctor in Thailand and he do really good job on me and i trust him. So many of my friends done something with him and he do really good job on them too. I did my lip and eye lash transplant here in Australia and the result is just so so. He gave me so good deal with 6 procedure together, which tempted me. All together cost me around 8K and if i would do it here it will cost me 55K. I save 47K. And a holiday too while i am recovering (I know i have holiday whole year around).
I don't like spending too much money on surgery, i rather donate that money to charity. My heart feel guilty if i spend it on thing doesn't make sense such as plastic surgery.
 
Awww, that's lovely how you feel about charity. Wow, quite a saving compared to the cost here. Good luck again & I hope it all goes well for you :)

And Thailand is my favourite place in the world (apart from Tassie)...hope you have a wonderful holiday there too :)
 
If over 10K i always declare at the custom

You have just un-suspectingly already told the tax department about the money.
If you dont declare it in your tax return, they will have you based on this information alone.

I tried to declare non-residency for tax purposes (legitimately - as I only spent about 5 weeks of the year in Oz). However, in the investigation they pulled my immigration card and used it against me. I had ticked the box "Australian citizen leaving the country temporarily". It was enough to claim that I intended to return to Australia, and therefore, I am considered a resident for tax purposes.

Sorry, but dont declare it, and you will get caught.
If you speak with an accountant they should be able to reduce your tax bill substantially without getting you into trouble (ie, by claiming your overseas travel as expenses). The amount of tax you will have to pay will be minimal and not worth not declaring it.

Good luck.
 
If you read my previous post, i said that i am intended to declare because i had sold my investment property and obviously you can't run away from the capital gain.
But hey, i don't need to bring back the money into Australia in the future. But i still can access the money in the future that located oversea here in Australia, just i need to pay the transfer fee.
 
Bringing more than 10k cash into the country doesn't necessarily mean it's taxable income, of course.

However, if I remember correctly the Australian tax return does ask whether you have any offshore accounts.
 
ATO never ask me before........And i live in Australia full time since 2004. So I work and earn money in other country before i live in Australia. I work as an engineer back in my former country and i don't pay tax there. Tax is new to me when i came here, work and live full time here.

You are so talented,first you are are a registered nurse ( coz i am a register nurse and i know i can provide better care than a normal nurse do).
Then you work as a nude model in your country before as well,
How did they fit in with your engineer work? :p
 
I graduate with the bachelor degree in engineering in 2001 back in my former country. I use 3 years to finish my whole course. Because i score straight A's in every subject, i apply to take up more subject in every semester so i can finish my course fast. I went to England to finish my course the last 2 semester. I work as an engineer for nearly 2 years in my former country before i live in Australia on and of between 2002 to 2004.

I just recently do nude modeling and travel last year. After my late partner pass away. No way he will allow me to do that stuff if he still alive. I am a register nurse between 2006 to Jan 2009

Who wouldn't want a registered nurse/engineer/escort naked shower girl/nude model? :p
Dont forget all these other skills :D
I work 7 days a week (around 4 or 5 day off in a year) as a kitchen hand, cleaner, customer service in different retail and just to save money to pay my investment property that i bought with my partner in 2004. I earn 1200 net per week just doing non skill work.)
 
So much question about my past life, do you want me to write a book about my self?
Ok, 2004 to 2006 i work as non skill job and then 2006 to 2009 i work as a nurse, cleaner/kitchen hand, customer service at the same time (i got 3 job in one stage), and do you think i work as a nurse and i can get 1200 net per week. No one will believe me, i need other job on top of the nurse (fulltime) to get such money. I do that because save time, i work in the hospital as a nurse, cleaner and kitchen hand. Customer service which i do near my house. So all are walking distance from my home and also i save time on travel between jobs. This is what i plan every single minute is earning money.
I work since i was very young about 16. I work as a fitness instructor when i was a teenage and when i study in England, i work part time fitness instructor. When i am in Uni, i love doing fitness. When my mum went back to LA to visit her family there, i went to a Miss fitness competition, the rest is history
