I will be eligible for a lump sum payment from an Aussie govt. super fund when I turn 55 in a couple of years. Question is, will I have to pay tax in Ireland on what's left after the Aussie taxman takes his slice? I've seen that Ireland has taxation arrangements down under but have no idea what that means for my nest egg. I am now employed by the HSE with full pension rights here, having returned to live and work since 2001. Does anyone know any schemes whereby I can minimise potential tax liability in ROI (if indeed that is the case), otherwise I'll be off to live back in sunny Oz - hmm now there's a thought!
