Answer:

Rule: Must apply residency s.6(1) ITAA36 and source (s.6-5, s.6-10 ITAA 97 to ascertain what

income Australia can tax). Superannuation test not applicable based on facts to ascertain what

income to tax.

Application and Analysis

Facts                          Resides Test              Domicile Test                       183-day Test                         

Physical Presence       1 month                      1 month                                  1 month     

.

Conclusion:

Pablo has all the family ties, financial ties and place of abode outside AU. He fails all the test. The one-month income source will be taxed in AU, but other 11 months will not be taxed in AU (French). He could be suffered from double taxation for the 1 month working between AU and Portugal. There is no DTA, so Pablo should rely on the Portuguese FITO.
