Leaving or moving to Australia
Leaving Australia to live overseas can have a myriad of tax consequences on assets you may own in Australia and overseas. The tax issues can be complex and we can advise you how the tax law applies to your situation. Similar, when moving to Australia there are a number of tax issues arising, particularly the tax treatment of assets, the treatment of foreign income and pensions. Getting good advice before you move can save a lot of headaches.
