I'm also Australian and set to move there soon.

I have another question.

I will have no Australian income and will move permanently (as far as tax office is concerned).

EXCEPT

I am setting up a deal with an Australian company where they will pay me A$10000 pa.

Does this count as Australian income?

What if the company sends me a cheque for say A$9999 and I deposit it in my international account? Can this then be tax free or does it get taxed?

I understand the A$9999 amount is not subject to scrutiny?

Is this OK?
