Case study 1: Residence and source
Fred, an executive of a British corporation specializing in management consultancy,
comes to Australia to set up a branch of his company. Although the length of his stay
is not certain, he leases a residence in Melbourne for 12 months. His wife
accompanies him on the trip but his teenage sons, having just commenced college,
stay in London. Fred rents out the family home. Apart from the absence of his
children, Fred’s daily behavior is relatively similar to his behavior before entering
Australia. As well as the rent on the UK property, Fred earns interest from
investments he has in France. Because of ill health Fred returns to the UK 11 months
after arriving in Australia.
