外藉人士收入如何課稅?

johnchao

我聽朋友說, 外藉人士在美工作, 是直接以收入%來課稅, 並且沒有扣繳額(例如撫養家人及房屋租賃等), 是這樣嗎?

这里有介绍。

“外藉人士” 你是指 alien for tax purpose么？
“扣繳額” 你是指收入中免税的部分么(exemption)？
如果回答都是“是”的话， 那么 alien 交税也是有免税额度exemption的 （in addition to treaty exemption）。 你朋友说的可能不对。

depending on if you're a resident or not for tax purpose. most of the country have tax treaty with US. so the first couple of years you don't need to pay any tax. you should ask some tax expert with experience with aliens. nobody can answer your questions with such limited information.
