Practice question
A previously qualifying nonresident citizen returns on July1 to reside permanently in the Philippines. All proof requirements are satisfied. She earns stipulated foreign-source income before arrival and separate foreign-source income after arrival. No special exception applies. What distinction follows from Section22(E)(4)?
- The arrival-year nonresident treatment for foreign-source income extends until arrival, not automatically through the rest of that year.
- The return retroactively makes every earlier foreign receipt worldwide-taxable under resident status.
- Every receipt after return remains outside coverage forever.
- Citizenship must be renounced before any residence rule can change.
- The payment currency alone determines both periods.
