I've been planning to be independent for days now and im spamming civic centers.
But I was thinking for a bit.What happens after i declare independence?
Please let me know :)

Edit: It will require hours of afk to get that tons of civics -.-

to your edit: build banks, their way faster.
to your main question: you will have a own commonwealth with members, new structures, and you don't have to pay payroll anymore

does immigrants still come after independence?

yes

I have a question what happens if I make a support colony for my mother colony and I dont want it to pay taxes? How can I do that? Or will it be ok if it does not pay taxes and I dont put any bad consequences on it

If you make a support colony within your commonwealth, it will pay taxes. If you don't want that, you have a few options.
1) You can make the sub colony independent
2) You can up your payroll to give it back it's taxes automatically
3) You can send your sub colony a bunch of money to cover it's taxes
4) You can reject the taxes, but there will be consequences. When you want to turn the mother relations back up, you can send a bunch of tax demands of $0 to bring them back up for free.

Like with any colony that doesn't pay. When relationships get under 50% you will get a immigration and import embargo. Meaning no new colonists will arrive and you can't import resources through the mass driver / galactic freight / space elevator /Stargate untill relationship is back at 80% I think.

Like vyryn says if you want to go around this issue, just changed the payroll assistance from your CW. Every colony by default gets 25% compensation of the total amount of salary you pay to your workers. Meaning 75% comes out of your own pocket plus the taxes you owe. The cw leader (owner of the mother colony) can change this percentage to whatever he wants. Dile it down to 0% or raise it to a number in the thousands. There is no limit. Once it's higher than 100% it means you receive more money from the mother colony than you have to pay out of your own pocket on salary.

If you have to pay 100 dollars each cycle, by default you would get 25 dollar's from your mother colony as compensation. Effectively meaning you only pay 75. But you have to pay upfront. The compensation comes later and only when the mother colony is online. Good thing is it works in retrospect. But if you're expansion is very fast and you're counting on the money from your mother colony it can cause problems. Anyways. If you pay 100 dollars worth of salary and 25 taxes you pay it up front. At a later time you get a gift from your mother colony worth 25 dollar's. So effectively you only paid 100 dollars. When the mother coloy raises the assistance to 100% you get full compensation for salary, you would only pay 25 dollars for the taxes. If the mother colony also wants to support you for that they need to set the percentage higher than 100%.

But for this the mother colony has to have enough funds to compensate all those incomes. Since the rate is the same for everyone and they would lose all income from taxes.

The best way to get civics fast to get independence is spam making investment banks! Or if you can't afford to make normal banks they also produce a decent amount! Also, make sure you pay your taxes! Or else it will add up and when you want to be independent you will have to pay it all about
