I have been going through the various posts and queries on this forum regarding the personal taxation rates and residence status for the same. There has been a lack of clarity overall. That is when I stumbled upon this site via Google search, which explains all the different situations for residence status (or not) for personal taxes, along with excellent examples for each.
