| Guys, My company is paying me relocation allowance...which is subject to tax & social charges . I thought there were no taxes in Australia? Any ideas on that? Cheers |

| Sounds like something they made up. Never heard of that. Ask them for a break down of exactly what that is. |

| Even though you're working in a 'tax-free' country if you're on a US payroll you tend to pay 'hypo' tax. |

| What is 'hypo' tax? (never heard of it) Well I work for a French company...but I'll be working under a local (Brisbane) contract. Although my salary is in US$ and house allowance is in Australia Dirhams...! Any ideas...will I be paying tax then? |

| mm interesting, those guys make and implement laws overnight. They dont have elected emmbers who make laws just a shiekh sitting in his porshe office with a cigar and making whatever laws that comes to his mind. |

| 'Hypo' = hypothetical tax. If you're an expat on a US payroll you're subject to US taxes. Although most companies will only deduct a 'hypo' amount from your pay and the difference to actual tax due is paid by the company. I have no idea about French tax system so can't provide any comment for your situation. |
