This is where I had to go for the ARC paperwork

Speaking of, what happens if your ARC will expire during a Level 4 lockdown?

[BigDave]

Where did you see that it is deadlier? More transmissible yes, but not deadlier.

What am I looking at here?

@Icon is posting the district breakdown of news cases in Xinbei. No concern (I hope) for you in Kaohsiung.

If x goes to the store and than later finds out he is positive. In order for the App to work x is suppose to tell the App he tested positive. The App tells everyone that was within Bluetooth distance of him in the store that they were in contact with a positive case, in this scenario x.

As I said in my post the problem with this is that it requires x to have downloaded the App before he went to the store and also requires him to report his positive test.

When there were small number of cases,they would publish a detailed schedule. They still do in Taichung or other cities with few cases.

For Northern Taiwan it has become mission impossible. They do have the data.

I guess the problem is about when he/she became infected or infectious.

Unfortunately, less than 1% of positively tested people choose to share their test result with the app:

Meanwhile, the CECC also revealed on Friday that a contact tracing phone app launched in April by the government has failed to live up to early expectations.

As of last week, the app had been downloaded over 8 million times, but only 29 users had voluntarily uploaded their tracking data after testing positive , according to Chen Tsung-yen, who also serves as deputy CECC chief.

That figure would account for less than 1 percent of the more- than 5,000 COVID-19 cases Taiwan has reported since May 15.

What happens if my library books expire during Level Four?

[owleyes]

How to file taxes in Level 3? Are the membership household offices open?

Time for real panic!

[BeachBum]

Yeah that was the point I was making. The QR code’s are better because very few people are going to self report.

[the_bear]

They’ve extended the filing deadline. You can go in and file but expect hazmat suits.

[acedubs]

I guess there would be outgoing flights during Level 4 lockdown

[Icon]

Taxes are due past June.

@Icon

Taxes are due past June.

By this you mean June 30 right? That’s the extended deadline I heard…

Year 2020 Income tax filing

I’d be curious to know about this too. Perhaps ask the savvy folks over here? Guy

Why should there not…

My strategy reading this thread is

1. Go to the bottom
2. Scroll up until I see a comment with a reference like news or something that might be relevant
3. Ignore everything else

Or I guess I could peruse 8877 comments. No.

Tell them you can’t return and you can’t pay.
