Unfortunately, my work, is not on the skills shortage for most english speaking countries, dont have ancestral visa. So chose other. Would like to leave as I actually believe it going to get seriously bumpy, worse than the last 10 years.

Planning to leave in June/July. Already moved most of my stuff off shore so SARS can't get any more of it.

Other. I'd like to leave, regardless of tax increase, but not a realistically achieveable option.

Ridiculous thread. Like anyone would move because of a tax increase. People who want to leave, are leaving regardless of a tax increase or not.

Leaving anyway. Tax increase was inevitable the moment we took that loan (whether it was spent wisely or not).

I want to leave, wife refuses. My one daughter is already moving to Canada next month.

 

[TPants]

Already left.. Once lockdown gave them the taste of power I knew that if it was not now, then I might as well have stayed and suffered with the rest.

Added option for any that want to change.

The impression I've gotten from some other threads is that tax increases drive away high earning individuals. In SA's demographics, most of MyBB members are relatively high earners.

My best before date is long gone and don't have the wealth to buy myself a new stay overseas.
