Hi ,
For the past 4 years I have worked in australia and ireland. When in australia I pay tax on a paye type basis. When in ireland I just tell my accountant what I have earned in ireland as a sole trader and pay tax on that. I'm pretty sure I'm not doing things correctly but as I pay the correct tax for level or earnings in both I feel it's ok. Don't understand the non resident thing. For 2008 and 2009 I would have been out of ireland for 400 days. Is there an advantage to me in being a 'non resident'? If I am a non resident I still pay tax on all my irish income when I'm here(incl residential investment properties)?
Many thanks
